ESDIS Project Status

The ESDIS Project is evolving its systems to align with the strategic vision presented by a collaborative EOSDIS Elements Study. Key objectives include improving access and processing capabilities, ensuring expert knowledge availability, and reducing operational costs. Significant cost drivers identified are EMD/ECS, GES DAAC, and LaRC DAAC, which together account for about 50% of the budget. The project aims to streamline systems, transition towards modern data management practices, and ensure effective stewardship of Earth science data, promoting seamless access for researchers and users across various sectors.

  1. ESDIS Project Status 11/29/2006 Dan Marinelli, Science Systems Development Office

  2. EOSDIS System Evolution • ESDIS was directed to evolve the systems under its budget to accommodate vision identified by a joint EOSDIS Elements Study/Technical team • Key vision elements include: • Improve access and processing services, ensure available expert knowledge, reduce operational costs, ensure safe stewardship, maintain IT currency

  3. EOSDIS System Evolution • Top 3 cost drivers contribute to approx. 50 % of total budget: • EMD/ECS • GES DAAC • LaRC DAAC • Factors that contribute to top 3 cost drivers: • Operating multiple systems (ECS, V0/V1, LaTIS, etc.) • DAAC-unique capabilities and science community support beyond specific operation of ECS/SDPS • Providing sustaining engineering for ECS/SDPS at the four ECS DAACs

  4. ESDIS Evolution Path • Approval has been given to embark down an evolution path • GES DAAC and ASDC DAAC to evolve away from ECS SDPS at their sites • MODAPS to evolve towards archive and distribution of all MODIS products • ECS SDPS footprint to be reduced greatly in terms of hardware and custom code • Summary of the plan can be found at http://eosdis-evolution.gsfc.nasa.gov/

  5. EOSDIS Today EOSDIS provides • A production capability for standard science data products from EOS instruments • An “active archive” of Earth science data from EOS and other past and present missions • A distributed information framework (data centers, SIPS, networks, interoperability, other system elements) with partners supporting EOS investigators and other users in science, government, industry, education, and policy EOSDIS_Today_11222006. xls

  6. EOSDIS Mission Profile

  7. Archive Volume Trend

  8. Granules into Archive Trend

  9. Distribution Volume Trend

  10. Distribution Granules Trend

  11. User Access Statistics

  12. EOSDIS 2006 Customer Satisfaction Survey • EOSDIS’ third survey, about 2800 responders • Survey has changed slightly each time, but the standard questions for measuring satisfaction are the same • 2006 survey addressed product search, selection and order, distribution, quality, documentation and customer support

  13. Respondent Background Q8. For which disciplines do you need or use Earth science data? (n=2,857)*

  14. Customer Survey Product Quality

  15. Summary of HDF-related comments to the CFI Survey(Informally assessed)

  16. How May We Help You? • The data gleaned from the survey leads us to conclude that the ESDIS Project needs to examine solutions for the areas of: • Data handling support software • Preprocessed/flexibly-formatted data access paths • NetCDF • GeoTIFF when applicable
