The GIBS team is actively engaging the NASA EOSDIS data centers to add more imagery products and to extend their coverage throughout the life of the mission. The remainder of this page provides a structured view of the layers currently available within GIBS grouped by science discipline and science observation. For information regarding how to access these products through the GIBS API, refer to the Access Methods section of this wiki. For information regarding how to access these products through an existing GIS/mapping client, refer to the Supported Clients section of this wiki. If you are aware of a science parameter that you would like to see visualized, please contact us at support@earthdata.nasa.gov.

As noted above, imagery products within GIBS are generated based on near real-time and standard science products. To understand the difference between these two data products, review the following page: MODIS Near Real-Time vs Science Quality. |

Science parameter visualizations are generated by mapping scientific measurements into an RGB image. Each measured value, or range of values, is assigned a unique color to create a visual representation of the underlying data values. This may also apply to classification data. Choose one of the following science disciplines, or scroll down, to view the imagery products available within GIBS.
