Description
Earthdata powered by EOSDIS (Earth Observing System Data and Information System) is a key core capability in NASA’s Earth Science Data Systems Program. It provides end-to-end capabilities for managing NASA’s Earth science data from various sources – satellites, aircraft, field measurements, and various other programs. EOSDIS uses the metadata and service discovery tool Earthdata Search https://search.earthdata.nasa.gov/search.
The capabilities of EOSDIS constituting the EOSDIS Science Operations are managed by NASA's Earth Science Data and Information System (ESDIS) Project. The capabilities include: generation of higher level (Level 1-4) science data products for several satellite missions; archiving and distribution of data products from Earth observation satellite missions, as well as aircraft and field measurement campaigns. The EOSDIS science operations are performed within a distributed system of many interconnected nodes - Science Investigator-led Processing Systems (SIPS), and distributed, discipline-specific, Earth science Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs) with specific responsibilities for production, archiving, and distribution of Earth science data products. The DAACs serve a large and diverse user community by providing capabilities to search and access science data products and specialized services.

Remarks
Remarks
EOSDIS is designed as a distributed system, with major facilities at data centers located throughout the United States. These institutions are custodians of Earth science mission data and ensure that data will be easily accessible to users. The EOSDIS data centers (Distributed Active Archive Centers, known as DAACs) process, archive, document, and distribute data from NASA's past and current Earth-observing satellites, ariborne instrument observations and field measurement programs. Acting in concert, the data centers provide reliable, robust services to users whose needs may cross the traditional boundaries of a science discipline, while continuing to support the particular needs of users within the discipline communities.For more information about the EOSDIS data centers see https://www.earthdata.nasa.gov/eosdis/daacs
