- Type: NOT PROVIDEDDescription: NASA's Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS) are responsive and highly available web services designed to facilitate visual discovery of scientific phenomena, support timely decision making for natural hazards, and make imagery of the planet more accessible to the media and public. Much of the imagery is updated daily, and some products span almost 30 years. Access to GIBS imagery is available through the following standards-based web services and formats: Web Map Tile Service (WMTS), Tiled Web Map Service (TWMS), Web Map Service (WMS), Keyhole Markup Language (KML), and Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL).
- Type: NOT PROVIDEDDescription: Allows users to download select NSIDC Earth Observing System (EOS) DAAC data directly via HTTPS. Products are available from: AGDC, AMSR-U, AMSR-E, ELOKA, FGDC, GLIMS, IceBridge, IceBridge Flight Reports, MEaSUREs, NOAA, Passive Microwave, PARCA, and SnowEx, to name a few.
- Type: Downloadable ToolDescription: Python scripts for reading and quickly visualizing the daily and monthly snow depth and monthly SWE ASCII files from the Canadian Meteorological Center (CMC) Daily Snow Depth Analysis Data, Version 1 data set. Included is a script for converting a snow depth ASCII file for one year into a GeoTIFF.
- Type: Web User InterfaceDescription: A search interface providing users the ability to search amongst all data sets cataloged by NSIDC.
