Topic: MODIS Outage

Date/Time Issued: December 02, 2020 1557Z

Product(s) or Data Impacted: All MODIS products from both TERRA and AQUA satellites

Date/Time of Initial Impact: December 1, 2020 0000Z

Date/Time of Expected End: TBD
Length of Outage: TBD

Details/Specifics of Change: The MODIS data production system has experienced a failure of a central processing component. We are continuing to work the issue. However, it is likely that the outage will last several days, and perhaps longer. There will be no valid MODIS data distributed for the duration.

In the meantime, NASA provides an alternative source through their LANCE (Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS) system: "lance.nasa.gov".
