The EOS Data Gateway serves as a centralized platform for accessing MODIS products from various Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs). Users can utilize diverse search parameters, including location, time period, sensor type, product, and quality. The interface allows saving customized queries for future use. Key functionalities include specifying data sets, geographic range, and date, ultimately yielding results identified by the granule ID. This organized system enhances the efficiency and ease of retrieving vital Earth observation data.
