Request for Licensing and Terms of Use Information for SRTM and MCD12Q1 Datasets

by drcaguiar » Wed Oct 23, 2024 7:35 pm America/New_York

I am participating in a project in Brazil involving a partnership between the government and the University of Brasília - UnB. We are using the SRTM and MCD12Q1 datasets. I would like to know the terms of use for these datasets, if there are any associated licensing requirements, and where I can find this information officially.
