Welcome to the Satellite Needs Working Group Management Office!

What do we produce?

The SNWG MO helps various agencies produce EOSDIS Standard Products1 “EOS Standard Products are internally consistent, well-calibrated records of observations of the Earth’s geophysical properties. They are identified and defined by EOS investigators who have been selected through a competitive peer review process to develop algorithms and software for generating products from EOS observations.

  • Products contain geophysical parameters and can be used for science research and application.
  • Standard products are validated, QA and fully documented.
  • A standard product file may require companion/support files to make data usable or to satisfy policy requirements. Examples include geolocation data files, browse image data, calibration and validation, higher-resolution data undergoing validation, and data quality metrics.”
