A-Train Data Depot Project Description
The primary objective of this A-Train virtual data portal/center, the A-Train Data Depot (ATDD), is to process, archive, provide access, visualize, analyze and correlate distributed atmosphere measurements from various A-Train instruments along A-Train tracks. The ATDD will enable the free movement of remotely located A-Train data, so that, they are combined to create a consolidated, almost synoptic, vertical view of the Earth's Atmosphere. Once the infrastructure of the ATDD is in place, it will be easily evolved to serve data from all A-Train data measurements: one-stop-shopping. The first data products being prepared for ATDD are Aqua/MODIS products subsetted along the CloudSat ground track and Aura/MLS scan track.
