| Eos data products | Aerospace | Three primary categories of EOS mission data products that will be provided by EOSDIS have been defined, as follows: Source: EPO. Prototype Data Products. Generated as part of a research investigation, of wide research utility, requiring too much data or computer power for generation at the investigator SCF, and accepted as a candidate Standard Data Product by the IWG. Prototype Data Products will be generated at DAACs, but their routine generation is not guaranteed and will not interfere with Standard Data Product generation. Special Data Products. Generated as part of a research investigation using EOS data and produced for a limited region or time period, or products that are not accepted as standard by the IWG and NASA Headquarters. They will be generated at research users' computer facilities. Standard Data Products. Generated as part of a research investigation, of wide research utility, accepted by the IWG and the EOS Program Office, routinely produced, and, in general, spatially and/or temporally extensive data products. Standard Level 1 data products will be generated for all EOS instruments; standard Level 2 data products will be generated for most EOS instruments. Some EOS interdisciplinary investigations will also generate standard data products. (references) | |
