Summary

Abstract: MODIS Online Visualization and Analysis System (MOVAS), developed by the GES DAAC and AreoCenter (of GSFC's Laboratory for Atmospheres), provides users with an easy-to-use, web-based interface for visualization and analysis of MODIS products. Currently, MODIS Atmosphere monthly global products are available via MOVAS. Other products to be available, such as MODIS daily products, are under development. Continued improvement of this online tool and production and dissemination of these data sets depends on you, our users, to let us know how you have used this tool and these data, and what are their value to your research. Please send your comments to the MODIS Data Support Team (modis-dst@daac.gsfc.nasa.gov). [Summary Extracted from the MOVAS Home Page]
