Erosion/Sedimentation Data Access and Tools
From discovery to visualization, data tools such as Earthdata Search and Worldview guide users in making the most of erosion and sedimentation data.
Featured Erosion and Sedimentation Observation Method: VIIRS
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), which flies aboard the joint NASA/NOAA Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) and NOAA-platforms, collects visible and infrared imagery along with global observations of Earth's land, atmosphere, cryosphere, and ocean.
The Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) will help ensure continuity of Earth observations after the upcoming retirement of the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS).
Join us to learn how to discover, subset, access and visualize both MODIS and VIIRS data products using a suite of user-friendly tools developed by NASA's ORNL DAAC.
Learn about the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument and how to access VIIRS Surface Reflectance data.
