Overview
NASA’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory Distributed Active Archive Center (ORNL DAAC) has added several datasets relevant to terrestrial ecologists to its suite of subsetting and visualization tools and services.
New products include gridded Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), and Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) mission data products as well as recent, non-gridded Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) footprint-level Aboveground Biomass Density and Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) photon-level Land and Vegetation Height products. These tools bring multiple datasets together in a single integrated platform—allowing users to discover, access, and analyze data for research areas at the 1km to 100 km scale.
This webinar will highlight the new datasets and tool capabilities and provide a Jupyter Notebook demonstration that shows how to enable the harmonization of remote sensing and in situ ecological data products with these tools and services.
