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.
