Summary

Abstract: The gridded MODIS active fire products present gridded statistical summaries of
fire pixel information (Giglio et al., 2003). These products are intended for
use in Giovanni system focused on regional (NEESPI) analysis of surface
processes and climate modeling. The products are generated at 1 degree spatial
resolution for ...
