Background
The Data Curation for Discovery (DCD) project focuses on the design and implementation of a systematic plan that assists other agencies in incorporating NASA Earth observation data into their workflows. The DCD team improves the discoverability of NASA Earth science data and other curated Earth observation data in trusted catalogs and on platforms, such as data.gov and geoplatform.gov.
Status: Available Now
Additionally, DCD creates a profile of agency needs captured through the federal-civil satellite needs survey conducted by the United States Group on Earth Observations (USGEO) Satellite Needs Working Group (SNWG). The team publicizes the outcomes (i.e. solutions) from SNWG survey assessments through Earthdata. The DCD team also gathers training resources and workshop information for select SNWG solutions to address the training needs of users.
Societal Impact
The DCD team maintains several web pages and data portals to ensure that SNWG solutions and associated capacity-building resources are available to SNWG stakeholders and user communities.
