Near-Real-Time SSM/I EASE-Grid Daily Global Ice Concentration and Snow Extent V002
The Near-real-time Ice and Snow Extent (NISE) data set provides daily, global maps of sea ice concentrations and snow extent. These data are not suitable for time series, anomalies, or trends analyses. They are meant to provide a best estimate of current ice and snow conditions based on information and algorithms available at the time the data are acquired. Near-real-time products are not intended for operational use in assessing sea ice conditions for navigation. This NISE Version 2 product contains SSMIS-derived sea ice concentrations and snow extents derived from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder (SSMIS) aboard the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) F8 and -F13 satellites. For DMSP-F17, SSMIS-derived data, see <a href="https://doi.org/10.5067/VF7QO90IHZ99"> NISE Version 4</a>. For DMSP-F18, SSMIS-derived data, see <a href="https://doi.org/10.5067/3KB2JPLFPK3R"> NISE Version 5</a>.

- Type: ECHO ORDERSDescription: NSIDC_ECS EOSDIS ECHO ORDERS Service Implementation
- Type: EGI - No ProcessingDescription: Using this service, data from the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC) can be accessed directly from our HTTPS file system, or through our Application Programming Interface (API). This API offers you the ability to programmatically order and bulk-download data using temporal and spatial filters without the need to script against NSIDC's data directory structure. This may be valuable if you are interested in incorporating data access commands into your analysis or visualization code.
