MODIS DUST IN THE MEDITERRANEAN AREA

In the framework of I-AMICA project, a system for publishing satellite data has been developed. The aim of this action is the implementation of a web service of classified MODIS data visualization. The data are daily acquired and they are processed and ready for the web after 4 days. The area covered by this service is the Mediterranean basin and 4 to 6 images are necessary every day to cover the area. The data are processed for atmospheric dust detection and 5 classes are extracted from thermal data. The data have a spatial resolution of 1 km.

Fields you can not change in the default view may be accessible in the more comprehensive (and more complex) advanced view. You can even use the XML editor to create custom structures, but they have to be validated by the system, so know what you do :-)
