The Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) is a key core capability in NASA's Earth Science Data Systems Program. Designed and maintained by Raytheon Intelligence & Space, it is a comprehensive data and information system designed to perform a wide variety of functions in support of a heterogeneous national and international user community.
As of 2006, NASA Earth Observatory has won the Webby People's Voice Award in Education three times. [2] There were a series of publicized images issued by the website in 2008, including imagery of clouds streaming over the Caspian Sea , dust storms curling off the coast of Morocco , the crumbling of the Wilkins Ice Shelf , Hurricane Bertha ...
Using 7000 sensors per band (Spectrum band), the OLI on NASA's most recent LandSat (LANDSAT 8) Satellite, will image/view the entire earth every 16 days. Enhanced Thematic Mapper + (ETM+) [6] [7] Used in conjunction with OLI, the ETM + images the Earth in 30m Pixels. To ensure quality, each scan has a correction due to Scan-Line correcting.

ASTER image draped over terrain model of Mount Etna. The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) is a Japanese remote sensing instrument onboard the Terra satellite launched by NASA in 1999. It has been collecting data since February 2000. ASTER image of Rub' al Khali (Arabia's Empty Quarter)
The data collected by FIRMS are presented as a free web mapping service, with the active fire locations if any overlaid on a map. [1] The detections are displayed on top of a static background layer and each visualized detection is clickable to display its data, such as detection time, coordinates, satellite and instrument.
An orthographic projection of NASA's Blue Marble data set (1 km resolution global satellite composite). "MODIS observations of polar sea ice were combined with observations of Antarctica made by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s AVHRR sensor—the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer."
