EarthDATA allows you to browse collections of satellite data and select the collection based on keywords such as “Solid Earth → Geomorphic Landforms/Processes → Fluvial Landforms”. Specific areas and dates can be selected on the main screen, it is recommended to confine the area as much as possible to avoid redundant searching. In order to download data, the search specification must be saved as your preferred project. Other search directories, including “Instruments” and “Platforms” may be selected through on the collection sidebar however, searching through keywords is the fastest way to download useful information for your project. Alternatively, if the area of interest is known it can be entered into the search bar directly along with the time frame of interest. Any type of imagery that is in the database and covers that area will appear in the results section at the bottom of the page. A collection does not contain any downloadable information if it does not have granules (indicated below collection icon). When downloading radar (Sentinel 1) data, there is the potential to view the data by browsing the image links before downloading to ensure you are downloading information from the desired location. These files can be upwards of 100s of MB depending on the size of the frame. | EarthDATA allows you to browse collections of satellite data and select the collection based on keywords such as “Solid Earth → Geomorphic Landforms/Processes → Fluvial Landforms”.

This site contains a data portal which supplies users with the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) data taken from the Aqua and Terra satellites. MODIS products spread over a wide variety of metadata: albedo, temperature, emissivity, reflectance, vegetation indicies, thermal anomalies and fire, elevation, land cover, leaf area index, radiance, gross primal productivity, vegetation cover, primary productivity and evapotranspiration data are available. The data formats vary with product, however the most common formats are HDF-EOS (~100 – 200 MB in size) and GeoTIFF. | This site contains a data portal which supplies users with the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) data taken from the Aqua and Terra satellites.
