From discovery to visualization, data tools such as Earthdata Search, Worldview, and Soil Moisture Visualizer guide users in making the most of permafrost data.
Table of contents
Featured Permafrost Observation Method: SMAP
The Soil Moisture Active-Passive (SMAP) platform measures surface soil moisture and freeze-thaw state. These direct measurements can be analyzed to learn more about permafrost distributions.
NASA's SMAP team turns raw satellite data into more than a dozen data products for data users around the world.
