Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center

The Land Processes DAAC was established as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS) Data and Information System (EOSDIS) initiative to process, archive, and distribute land-related data collected by EOS sensors, thereby promoting the inter-disciplinary study and understanding of the integrated Earth system.The role of the Land Processes DAAC includes the processing and distribution of ETM+ data acquired byLandsat 7, higher-level processing and distribution of ASTER data, and the distribution of MODIS land products derived from data acquired by the Terra and Aqua satellites.
