The ORNL DAAC has released an update to the popular MODIS Global Subsetting and Visualization Tool, including support for MODIS Collection 6 land products. The new subsetting tool provides on-demand, customized subsets of 14 MODIS Collection 6 land products.

Users will notice a streamlined subset ordering interface, an order history page for users logged in with Earthdata login, faster subset processing, and a redesigned, interactive order delivery and visualization page. In addition, the MODIS subsetting tool provides:

  • R code for analyzing and plotting the subset orders
  • detailed QC information
  • land cover and phenology data
  • data citations
  • download access for the data in tabular and spatial data formats
  • extensive documentation to make subset orders easier to understand and use
