With all due respect to my colleagues at USGS, I think this product will take them several more years to produce. I think one should expect a product from ASU before that.

Of course, the IR resolution is "only" 100 meters/pixel. THEMIS will probably not obtain global coverage at VIS resolution (18 m/pxl), or even 2x summed VIS (36 m/pxl.)

The next thing to hope for will be a CTX global mosaic at ~12 m/pxl.
