Agricultural Production Regions
and MODIS
Mosaic images were created by the NASA MODIS Rapid Response System team
to overlap agricultural regions identified by USDA-FAS-PECAD. New
MODIS mosaics are produced daily for each agricultural region in
false color and true color from the Terra and Aqua satellites at
1km, 500m and 250m resolution. These near real-time images can be
viewed and downloaded after clicking on a region outlined in red.
