MODIS/Aqua Thermal Anomalies/Fire 5-Min L2 Swath 1km V061

Published by LP DAAC;NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/TISL/MODAPS | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: September 02, 2026 at 12:03 AM | Dataset Last Updated: September 01, 2026
The Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Thermal Anomalies and Fire (MYD14) Version 6.1 product is produced daily in 5-minute temporal satellite increments (swaths). The MYD14 product is used to generate all of the higher level fire products, but can also be used to identify fires and other thermal anomalies, such as volcanoes. Each swath of data is approximately 2,030 kilometers along track (long), and 2,300 kilometers across track (wide). Known Issues * For complete information about known issues please refer to the [MODIS/VIIRS Land Quality Assessment website](https://landweb.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/knownissue?sensor=MODIS&sat=Aqua&as=61).
