Overview
To understand the ecological and biogeochemical characteristics of a region, several data sets have to be assembled for analysis. In general creation of these data bundles is manual and time consuming.
In 2011, ORNL DAAC UWG members who represent ORNL DAAC's diverse user community
reccommended that the ORNL DAAC explore the creation of data bundles/services. The data bundles are pre-created data sets organized by science themes such as land cover, carbon, and phenology.
To faciliate the data bundle needs of the user community, the ORNL DAAC has created a pilot project for multi-sensor subsets. The pilot multi sensor subsetting activity will be data subsets of several land parameters for 3-10 field sites.
See document for more details.
