NASA's Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) is located at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. ORNL DAAC was established in 1993 and is under an interagency agreement between NASA and the Department of Energy.

ORNL DAAC specializes in data and information relevant to terrestrial biogeochemistry, ecology, and environmental processes, which are critical to understanding the dynamics of Earth's biological, geological, and chemical components.

Biogeochemical Dynamics Data

ORNL DAAC archives data and model products that were generated with funding from NASA's Terrestrial Ecology program and other programs within NASA's Carbon Cycle and Ecosystems focus area. Datasets are organized by both the name of the associated NASA project and by science themes in biogeochemical and ecological research.

    Data Tools and Services: Spatial Data Access Tool, Thematic Real-time Environmental Distributed Data Services (THREDDS), Daymet Single Pixel Extraction Tool, and land product subsets.

    NASA Earthdata Webinar on Site-based Visualization Tools and Services Available

    May 1, 2023
    A recording is now available for the April 12, 2023 webinar on "Advancing Ecological Insights with NASA Subsetting and Visualization Tools and Services for Site-based Research", presented by ORNL DAAC Scientists Drs. Rupesh Shrestha and Bruce Wilson. This webinar highlighted new datasets and tool capabilities for the ORNL DAAC's remote sensing tools, and it included a Jupyter Notebook demonstration that shows how to enable the harmonization of remote sensing and in situ ecological data products with these tools and services.  Links to the recording and the GitHub repository with the Jupyter notebook are available through the ORNL DAAC Learning Resources page for this webinar.   We encourage you to learn about new products available through our subsetting and visualization tools and services and to explore the new data and capabilities through the Jupyter Notebook tutorial. See the ORNL DAAC's Learning Resources page for a complete listing of webinars, tutorials, and other resources to help you use ORNL DAAC data and services.

    2023 Delta-X Open Data Workshop

    May 1, 2023
    The Delta-X mission is hosting a free Open Data Workshop June 5, 2023 from 10:00 a.m. to 12:20 p.m. ET at Boston University and virtually. Workshop participants will learn about the 2021 Spring and Fall campaign data and derived products over the Mississippi River Delta floodplain. The agenda of this open workshop includes a virtual participation link and introduces key Delta-X data products including: aboveground biomass, water level and water level change, sediment accretion, vegetation data, elevation, and modeling hydrodynamics. The ORNL DAAC will present and demonstrate available options to access these Delta-X data products, including Earthdata Cloud. This workshop provides opportunity to hear first hand from the science team as it is being conducted as part of the Delta-X Science Team Meeting.
