The founding manager of NASA's Interagency Implementation and Advanced Concepts Team (IMPACT) looks back on five years of project accomplishments with the Earth Science Data Systems Program.

NASA Worldview added four layers from the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) program to provide ground-based measurements of aerosol optical depth (AOD) and Angstrom parameter.

Satellite instruments have trouble discerning fire activity under heavy clouds or smoke cover. These conditions can limit active fire detection.

Developers envision the updated Field Campaign Explorer as a cloud-based, enterprise-level data tool that encourages open science.

An in-depth look at the development, attributes, and (many) benefits of this foundation model for applying artificial intelligence (AI) to weather and climate.

Active fire detection data from five geostationary sensors are available in NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) and collectively provide global coverage.

NASA’s Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) provides natural resource managers with near real-time active fire/hotspot locations using satellite-derived fire information.

The collaborative development of a weather and climate artificial intelligence (AI) foundation model supports a broad range of public safety and science applications.

Using NASA Earth observation data, researchers assessed miles of Brazilian coastline to identify high-risk points of fish contaminated with microplastics.

The Getting Ready for NISAR (GRFN) cooperative effort prepared NASA's Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) Project for archiving and distributing large-scale files from data-intensive missions.
