MODIS/Aqua+Terra Global Flood Product L3 NRT 250m

Metadata Updated: April 10, 2026

The MODIS/Aqua+Terra Global Flood Product L3 Near Real Time (NRT) 250m Global Flood Product (MCDWD_L3_NRT) (beta) provides daily maps of flooding globally. The product is provided over 3 compositing periods (1-day, 2-day, and 3-day) to minimize the impact of clouds and more rigorously identify flood water (the best composite will depend on the cloudiness for a particular event). The beta version of the product will be updated. For more information, visit product page at: https://earthdata.nasa.gov/earth-observation-data/near-real-time/mcdwd-nrt
