Application data update: Newest NSIDC DAAC SMAP data set versions available in AppEEARS

The Application for Extracting and Exploring Analysis Ready Samples (AppEEARS) now includes the newest versions of select Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) data sets from the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). AppEEARS offers a simple and efficient way to subset SMAP data sets using spatial, temporal, and layer parameters for both point and area samples. A step-by-step tutorial for accessing SMAP data in AppEEARS is available. Updates and information about each SMAP data set are described in more detail on the individual data set web pages linked below.
