Earth Observation At SAFE EO of land surfaces
USGS Earth Explorer: set up your own account, Landsat data are free and can be downloaded directly (choose Geotiffs please)
Earth Observation At SAFE EO of land surfaces
REVERB ECHO NASA: set up your own account, MODIS Products e.g. land cover (MDC12Q1; 500m), NDVI and EVI (MOD13 and MYD13, 250 m), Active Fire (MOD14, MYD14, 1km), Burned Area (MCD45, 500m), ASTER GDEM (30 m)
