The EDC 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 EDC DAAC role
subsequently was expanded to include processing and distribution responsibilities related to
Landsat 7
data. We archive and distribute
ASTER
and
MODIS
data from
Terra
, the first EOS satellite, and will receive MODIS data from Aqua. We also produce ASTER higher-level products. The archives at EDC hold the world's largest collection of
civilian remotely sensed data covering the Earth's land masses.
