Many of the imagery layers are updated within three hours of observation, essentially showing the entire Earth as it looks "right now". This supports time-critical application areas such as wildfire management, air quality measurements, and flood monitoring. View current natural hazards and events using the Events tab which reveals a list of natural events, including wildfires, tropical storms, and volcanic eruptions. Animate the imagery over time. Arctic and Antarctic views of many products are also available for a "full globe" perspective. Browsing on tablet and smartphone devices is generally supported for mobile access to the imagery.</span><div><span style='color: rgb(50, 50, 50); font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;'><br /></span></div><div><ul><li>Worldview MODIS video: <a href='https://youtu.be/X16cfGPL2wA' style='box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(34, 118, 172); text-decoration-line: none;' target='_blank'>NASA's Worldview: Two decades of Earth Data at your Fingertips</a></li><li>Worldview Tutorial - <a href='https://youtu.be/LI3aVTNhCKU' style='box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(34, 118, 172); text-decoration-line: none;' target='_blank'>How to View and Share your Planet with Worldview</a></li><li>Worldview Webinar - <a href='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96Nt36euLJY' style='box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(34, 118, 172); text-decoration-line: none;' target='_blank'>Explore the Entire Earth, Every Day, with Satellite Imagery from NASA Worldview</a></li></ul><div><div style='box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(50, 50, 50); font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;'>Powered by GIBS</div><p style='box-sizing: inherit; color: rgb(50, 50, 50); font-family: "Open Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px;'>Worldview uses NASA's <a href='https://earthdata.nasa.gov/about/science-system-description/eosdis-components/global-imagery-browse-services-gibs' style='box-sizing: inherit; background-color: transparent; color: rgb(34, 118, 172); text-decoration-line: none;'>Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS)</a> to rapidly retrieve its imagery for an interactive browsing experience.
