4. 4 Example Usage: What is the MODIS land cover value at 32.707072 N, -94.120474 W Perl Client

5. 5 Kepler- Scientific Workflow Check in Google Maps for aerial photo of this locationGoogle Maps Step A: Provide inputs such as Product Band Latitude, Longitude Size of the subset A B C Step B: Kepler uses the MODIS Web Service to find all dates that have MCD12Q1 (Land Cover) data for location 32.707072 N, -94.120474 W Step C: Kepler uses the MODIS Web Service to get the subsets for each available MODIS date.
