LP DAAC to Discontinue Data Pool Distribution for MODIS Datasets

Data Update
Issued
June 3, 2025
Resolved

As part of a larger effort to migrate data and services hosted on-premises at the NASA Land Processes Distributed Active Archive Center (LP DAAC), access to all Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS)  related datasets (including MODIS Collection 6.1) via LP DAAC Data Pool will be retired on June 30, 2025. The NASA Earthdata Cloud is now the primary data archive for all NASA land processes related data. 

Users currently utilizing NASA’s Earthdata Search will have no changes to their workflows. If you currently access data through legacy on-premises archive, including through the LP DAAC Data Pool, please update your data access workflows and scripts to use the Earthdata Cloud archive. All data offered through AppEEARS remains accessible. Users are encouraged to consult the number of resources and user workflows available to access and work with data in NASA’s Earthdata Cloud

If you have questions, please contact LP DAAC User Services.
