Science System Description
The Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) employs a federated architecture composed of independent components that can be integrated into the system as needed.
The components of the system are broken down into a number of capabilities and services:
-
EOSDIS Components
- EOSDIS Distributed Active Archive Centers (DAACs)
- Science Data Processing Segment (SDPS)
- Science Investigator-led Processing Systems (SIPS)
- Common Metadata Repository (CMR)
- Earth Observing System (EOS) Clearing House (ECHO)
- Earth Observing (EOS) Networks
- ESDIS Metrics System (EMS)
- Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS)
- Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for Earth Observing System (LANCE)
- Earthdata Login
- Web Infrastructure
- Global Change Master Directory (GCMD)
- EOSDIS Tool Information
- EOSDIS Services
- ESMO Components
The EOSDIS system support team provides assistance for the software development cycle of the components across EOSDIS. Specific information regarding the environments is available to integrators during the integration process.
