The PO.DAAC would like to announce the release of our THREDDS (Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services) Data Server to access selected PO.DAAC Datasets.
The THREDDS Data Server (TDS) is a web server that provides metadata and data access for scientific datasets, using OPeNDAP, OGC WMS and WCS, HTTP, and other remote data access protocols. The TDS is developed and supported by Unidata, a division of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR), and is sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF).

The PO.DAAC THREDDS Data Server serves the contents of selected PO.DAAC DATASETS through a web catalog service that allows users to select data (granule) from a hierarchal tree that mirrors the PO.DAAC FTP site or predefined yearly virtual datasets (data aggregated by time) for subsetting or viewing through the provided data access services.
