PO.DAAC will be holding a Town Hall at the
Ocean Sciences Meeting Monday, February 22 12:45 pm – 1:45 pm at
the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center room 211-213.
PO.DAAC: Discover and Utilize NASA
Physical Oceanographic Data
The Physical Oceanography Distributed
Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) is NASA’s data center for physical
oceanographic data, which spans ocean surface winds, ocean surface
topography, salinity, sea surface temperature, gravity, ocean circulation and
more. This town hall will provide a summary on PO.DAAC’s data holdings
and demonstrate various tools and services to discover, visualize, subset and
obtain those data. These services are designed to span the diversity of our
users, such as researchers that need to co-locate satellite data to their in
situ measurements, data managers who need to supplement their data holdings,
and climate modelers who require long time series.
