What is MODIS's default Geographic Coordinate System and projected coordinate system? My study area is Bangladesh. I found the image distorted (the upper portion is bent towards left and lower portion is bent to the right. Pics attached). How can I project them to Geographic Coordinate System: WGS 1984 and projected coordinate system: WGS 1984 UTM Zone 45N ?
Mr. Aqil Tariq is correct. Please open the MODIS product in Arc Map 10.8, and search projection, and add projection and zone and then select output path, and click Ok. Thank you.
Hi, I think that the projection is crs: SR-ORG:6974.

If you have a raster, without the definition of projection, then you need to define it, and if you want to do any other analysis with other vectorial data or raster data, you'll need to reproject your raster to a common projection.
You can do this by coding using rasterio in python, or using other GIS software such as QGIS or ArcGIS.

Modis data use sinusoidal projection system. You can transform the projection system to geographic or any other in any GIS software
You can open this product in Arc Map 10.x, and search projection, and add projection and zone and select output path, and click Ok.

Has there been a solution yet? For I run into the same situation while trying to transform a UTM WGS84 layer to MODIS Sinusoidal desperately
