Description
The MODIS/Aqua+Terra Global Flood Product L3 Near Real Time (NRT) 250m 1-day CS GeoTIFF Product (MCDWD_L3_F1C_NRT) (beta) provides daily maps of flooding globally. The Global Flood product is provided over 3 compositing periods (1-day, 2-day, and 3-day) to minimize the impact of clouds and more rigorously identify flood water (the best composite will depend on the cloudiness for a particular event). The MCDWD_L3_F1C_NRT is 1-day CS product that has cloud shadow masks applied to the water detections, to help remove cloud-shadow false positives.
The beta version of the product will be updated. For more information, visit product page at:
