ECS at the DAACs

NASA has implemented the EOSDIS using a distributed, open system. Autonomous facilities possessing unique institutional capabilities and expertise serve as the backbone to the program. These Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs) support the EOSDIS Program by providing unique cross-discipline global change research. There are currently 9 DAACs that are responsible for processing, archiving, and distributing

EOS and other related data to a wide user base. Each of the DAACs hosts either an ECS-designated scientist or engineer representative (or sometimes one of each) to serve as a DAAC Contact Information in the DAAC-ECS development relationship.

Read the ECS Newsletter for Summer 1997 to find out more current information about the SSI&T on the ECS Pre-Release B Testbed, provided by DAAC liaisons.
