National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Agency Report WGISS-51

The Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS) strives to enhance international coordination and data exchange and to optimize societal benefit. CEOS contributes to NASA’s core mission and is critical to NASA’s Earth Science program and to the future of Earth observations community as a whole because it advances mission planning, interagency coordination and technical implementation. Within NASA, the CEOS Working Group on Information System and Services (WGISS) is a forum for the Earth Sciences Data Systems (ESDS) Program to collaborate with other international and domestic agencies in the development of Earth observation data systems and services. NASA leads the development and demonstration of multiple prototypes supporting CEOS and Group on Earth Observations (GEO) requirements. NASA’s participation in WGISS influences NASA’s Earth Observing System Data and Information System’s (EOSDIS) ability to make high-quality data products available to the broad science community both nationally and internationally. Combined with NASA’s free and open data policy, EOSDIS’s involvement in WGISS is essential to widespread use of research satellite measurements. This presentation focuses on an overview and recent status of NASA’s EOSDIS.

EOSDIS Archive & Data Stewardship

NASA’s Earth Observing System Data and Information System’s (EOSDIS) was built to archive and distribute earth science data from flight and research programs. At the close of FY2020, the data collection had grown to over 42 petabytes distributed across the US. This presentation describes fundamentals associated with managing a free and open archive of this size for a worldwide, multi-discipline user community. The presentation is prepared for the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS), which strives to enhance international coordination and data exchange and to optimize societal benefit. The Working Group on Information System and Services (WGISS) is a forum within CEOS for the collaboration with other international and domestic agencies io the development of Earth observation data archives, systems and services. This presentation reviews the construct of the EOSDIS archives, formats for long term archive, preservation of appropriate data and documents, and challenges facing the community.
