The OBPG serves as a Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) for satellite Ocean Biology (OB) data produced or collected under NASA's Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS), including those from historical missions and partner space organizations and is a member of the World Data System (WDS). This website thus serves as the primary data access portal to the NASA OB.DAAC. The links below provide a variety of methods to access the holdings of the OB.DAAC, including visual browsers that enable point-and-click access by data levels and direct access for bulk download. In agreement with partner organizations, some data access requires user registration to enable better tracking of usage metrics.
The data management plan describes the acquisition, generation, management, archive and distribution of science data products generated by the Ocean Data Processing System (ODPS). For a detailed description of science data products, data flows, supported sensors, and data availability, archiving and distribution, please refer to the plan document.
Discover Data - Discover the tools and methods available for accessing OBPG/OB.DAAC data.
