We are a home for Earth science data and computing professionals. Our sessions bring together the community for hands-on, interdisciplinary deep dives as we explore "Bridging Divides: Data, Technology, Community" this year. Learn more about this theme on the ESIP Meetings page.
Session and plenary recordings will be published on the ESIP YouTube Channel.
This session gives attendees an opportunity to learn more about two key earth observation programs in the US Federal government: NASA's Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) Project and NOAA's National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS). Both programs operate a fleet of earth observation satellites, but there are key differences in their mission, platforms and instruments, and methods for data discovery and access. The session also covers important ways NASA and NOAA work together to achieve the larger mission of providing data and information about the global environment. Includes fun activities and agency/satellite mission swag.
