Order Data
On Wednesdays from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. (USA Mountain Time), AMSR-E, IceBridge, ICESat/GLAS, MODIS, and NISE data are normally unavailable for ordering due to system maintenance. However, on the first Wednesday of each month, these data will be unavailable for ordering from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. (USA Mountain Time).
AMSR-E data are available from five sources: the Data Pool, the Warehouse
Inventory Search Tool (WIST), preliminary data, SNOWI, and via subscription.
The following table provides a link and brief description
for each data source.

Data Source Information |
|
The Data Pool provides direct File Transfer Protocol (FTP) access to NSIDC
Earth Observing System (EOS) data, including the entire archive of AMSR-E
data. It also offers users the HDF-to-GeoTIFF (HEG) conversion
tool, which allows users to reformat, re-project, and perform subsetting
operations. |
|
|
The Warehouse Inventory Search Tool (WIST) can be used to access the entire archive of AMSR-E data, as well as data from a wide variety of other instruments and other Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) data centers and other data providers. The WIST also allows for parameter and spatial subsetting. |
|
Preliminary versions of AMSR-E Level-2 and Level-3 data are available via FTP. Registration is required to access the data. |
|
The Search 'N' Order Web Interface (SNOWI) can be used to access the entire
archive of AMSR-E data. It is an easy interface to use and allows a maximum
of 1500 granules per order. SNOWI only searches NSIDC data and does not offer
subsetting. |
|
Subscribe to have new AMSR-E data automatically sent via FTP to your local
server or staged on the NSIDC FTP site when the data become available. |
Note: The highest version number represents the best quality data available.
