The MYD14A2 Version 6 data product was decommissioned on July 31, 2023. Users are encouraged to use the MYD14A2 Version 6.1 data product.

The Aqua Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Thermal Anomalies and Fire 8-Day (MYD14A2) Version 6 data are generated at 1 kilometer (km) spatial resolution as a Level 3 product. The MYD14A2 gridded composite contains maximum value of individual fire pixel classes detected during the eight days of acquisition.

The Science Dataset (SDS) layers include the fire mask and pixel quality indicators.

Known Issues * Known issues are described on the MODIS/VIIRS Land Quality Assessment website and in Section 7.2 of the User Guide which covers Pre-November 2000 Data Quality, Detection Confidence, Flagging of Static Sources, and the August 2020 MODIS Aqua Outage.
