Data Announcement

MODIS Mosaic of Greenland 2005 Now Available

The NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC) is pleased to announce a new data set, the MEaSUREs MODIS Mosaic of Greenland 2005 (MOG2005) Image Map. This data set consists of two digital image maps for Greenland that show surface morphology and snow grain size. The image maps are constructed from MODIS imagery acquired during 2005 and provide nearly cloud-free views of all land areas and islands larger than a few hundred meters, including the ice caps on Baffin Island, Devon Island, Axel Heiberg Island, and Ellesmere Island.
