Abstract

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Earth Observing System (EOS) of Terra and Aqua satellites, launched in December 1999 and May 2002, has been directly received by Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) ground station facility from July 2002. MODIS scans a swath width of 2330 km that is sufficiently wide to cover Korean peninsular, Yellow and East Sea at once. The MODIS has 36 spectral bands between 0.415 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 14.235 $\mu\textrm{m}$, i.e., through the visible into the thermal infrared. MODIS has been observed active fires, floods, smoke transport, dust storms, severe storms since February of 2000. The satellite imagery obtained through the MODIS will be utilized for many application such as national territorial management, agriculture, natural environment, atmosphere and ocean, etc. In this study is to introduce various application field of MODIS imagery and data processing system.
