Near Realtime MODIS and AVHRR Satellite Imagery
This collection includes satellite imagery from the following sources:
- The MODIS Rapid Response System Gallery contains imagery that is hand picked from the MODIS Rapid Response Team to show major events that are visible from space that day. Dust storms, hurricanes, tropical storms and wildfires are just some of the events you’ll see in this collection. The images are sorted based on the day of the year in which they were captured. Click on the name of the image under the Places folder in Google Earth to see some general information regarding the image, including a brief description of what is being shown. The collection includes over 1,000 images from 2003 to 2008.
- The OnEarth WMS Layers by JPL collection contains numerous layers derived from the MODIS sensor on the Terra and Aqua satellites. Several of these are updated daily with current satellite imagery.
- The SSEC Near Realtime MODIS and AVHRR collection contains near real-time MODIS and AVHRR data provided by the Space Science and Engineering Center at the University of Wisconsin Madison. The MODIS imagery only covers the United States, but is available about 1 hour after the satellite overpass. The AVHRR images are available about 1-4 hours after the satellite overpass. Network links which automatically update every day are included for the MODIS imagery. You must manually download a KML file for the daily update of AVHRR imagery.
