    Description: Global satellite-based precipitation products have been widely used in research and applications around the world. Compared to ground-based observations, satellite-based measurements provide data on a global scale, especially in remote continents and over oceans. The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC) is home to NASA global precipitation product archives including the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM), as well as other global and regional precipitation products. Precipitation is one of the top downloaded and accessed parameters in the GES DISC data archive. Meanwhile, users want to easily locate and obtain data quality information at regional and global scales to better understand how precipitation products perform and how reliable they are. As a data service provider, it is necessary to provide easy access to data quality information. However, such information normally is not available, and when it is available, it is not in one place and difficult to locate. In this presentation, we will present such challenges and activities at the GES DISC to address precipitation data (other datasets as well) quality issues.

    Description: Precipitation is a key environmental variable. For example, in agriculture, precipitation, temperature, water (soil moisture), solar radiation, NDVI, etc., are key variables.Rainfed agriculture major farming practices that rely on rainfall for water.Rainfed agriculture: 〉95% of farmed land (sub-Saharan Africa); 90% (Latin America); 75% (Near East and North Africa); 65% (East Asia); 60% (South Asia).Droughts and floods can cause severe crop loss. The Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC), one of 12 NASA data centers, is located in Greenbelt, Maryland, USA. The NASA GES DISC is a major data archive center for global precipitation, water & energy cycles, atmospheric composition, and climate variability.

    Description: Accessing and using NASA Earth science data has commonly presented a challenge to many educators and students, due to issues such as heterogeneous data formats, complex data structures, large volumes of data storage, special programming requirements, and diverse analytical software options that often require a significant investment in time and resources, especially for novices. By facilitating data access and evaluation, as well as promoting open access to create a more level playing field for non-funded scientists, NASA Earth observation data can be more readily used for scientific discovery and societal benefits. To advance this goal, the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC) developed the Geospatial Interactive Online Visualization ANd aNalysis Infrastructure (Giovanni). To date, Giovanni has assisted researchers around the world publish over 1300 peer-reviewed papers in a wide range of Earth science disciplines. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how easy it is to use Giovanni for the rapid creation of many different analyses of both weather and climate events.

    Description: It is the NASA Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC) mission statement to facilitate data access and evaluation, as well as scientific exploration and discovery. Recently, GES DISC has been evolving and improving our data management and services in order to promote GES DISC data to be easily discovered, improve usage and made more interoperable with common tools. As a result, we will present a brief review of our recent data services at the GES DISC including our new science-data driven website, subsetting and resampling services across multitude of satellite processing levels, visualization services, and how we utilize social media tools to interact with user communities.
