Webinar: Making Waves: PO.DAAC’s Journey from Servers to a Cloud Environment

Why is the NASA Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) and the NASA Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) moving to the cloud?

This webinar, addresses your burning questions about the move to the cloud, what it means for the data, services, and resources PO.DAAC provides, and what it means for the data user community. You will learn about this paradigm shift, in the context of a NASA EOSDIS DAAC, what tools and services, as well as data, are anticipated to be cloud-based shortly, and learn about other PO.DAAC efforts to expand data accessibility and usability, including consideration for interoperability and making data more GIS-ready.

Data In Action: NASA CYGNSS mission - tracking winds from space

The Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS), launched on 15 December 2016, is a NASA Earth System Science Pathfinder Mission that was designed with the purpose to collect the first frequent space-based measurements of surface wind speeds in the inner core of tropical cyclones. Made up of a constellation of eight micro-satellites, the CYGNSS observatory provides coverage over the tropical oceans between approximately 38° N and 38° S latitude with an average revisit time of seven hours.

Animation: Ocean surface wind speed animation of the CYGNSS Level 3 Climate Data Record Version 1.0

Animation of the CYGNSS Level 3 Climate Data Record Version 1.0 dataset from 2017 to 2020. This dataset contains the Version 1.0 CYGNSS Level 3 Climate Data Record which provides the average wind speed and mean square slope (MSS) on a 0.2x0.2 degree latitude by longitude equirectangular grid obtained from the Delay Doppler Mapping Instrument aboard the CYGNSS satellite constellation.
