User Notice: GoLIVE Map Application retiring June 30

This is a reminder that the GoLIVE Map Application (https://nsidc.org/app/golive) will be retired on June 30, 2026 as part of NSIDC DAAC’s software decommissioning work. After June 30, 2026, the GoLIVE Map Application will no longer be available.

The underlying GoLIVE dataset is not being retired and will remain available through the NSIDC dataset landing page and standard access/download options: https://nsidc.org/data/nsidc-0710/versions/2

If you used the map application to help identify data locations using Landsat path/row (pXXX/rYYY) selections, please see the original retirement notice for updated guidance and alternative workflows: https://nsidc.org/data/user-resources/data-announcements/user-notice-upcoming-retirement-golive-map-application

We’ve also updated this Help Center article with alternative workflow guidance: https://nsidc.org/data/user-resources/help-center/how-access-nsidc-data-using-ftp-client-command-line-wget-or-python

Additionally, if you are looking for a more fully reprocessed and expanded ice-velocity product, you may be interested in the ITS_LIVE project, which provides global ice velocities (1984 to the present) via an interactive map application: https://nsidc.org/apps/itslive/

If you have questions or would like help identifying the best alternative workflow for your use case, please contact NSIDC DAAC User Services at nsidc@nsidc.org.
