Terra and Aqua / MODIS / Composite Vegetation Index(a.k.a. VI)

Type: Data Compilation
Maintained by: NASA

Multimedia Items Available Relating to Terra and Aqua / MODIS / Composite Vegetation Index(a.k.a. VI)

This image shows land in grey, water in blue, the worldwide croplands region as designated by NASA's MODIS instrument in yellow, and the drought regions in brown. Drought data is aggregate data from 2005 till 2009.   3651   World Droughts from 2005 to 2009 versus where Crops are Grown
This visualization cycles throught Global Crop Intensity data, MODIS croplands data, FAS Crop Production data, and the United Nations Projected Population in 2050 data.  This version is labeled.   3646   2009 Crop Intensity, 2009 Producers, and 2050 Projected Population
This visualization shows Crop Intensity data (regions that produce the most crops), followed by the MODIS croplands product,  the 26 countries that produce 82% of the world's food, the population density in 2002 and finally the projected population in 2050.   3629   Crop Intensity
This animation shows where the world's food is grown versus where the world's food is consumed.  The movie starts with global croplands and then fades to the countries that produce over 80% of the world's wheat, grain, and cereal. It then overlays the world's population density and then fades to show the countries that are projected to double and triple their population by 2050.   3601   Global Agricultural Monitoring
