The Planetary Computer Data Catalog includes petabytes of environmental monitoring data, in consistent, analysis-ready formats. All of the datasets below can be accessed via Azure Blob Storage.
The MODIS instrument operates on both the Terra and Aqua spacecraft, covering the entire surface of the Earth within one or two days. The derived data products describe atmosphere, cryosphere, land, and ocean features utilized in studies across various disciplines.
The Sentinel-2 program provides global imagery in thirteen spectral bands at 10m-60m resolution and a revisit time of approximately five days. This dataset contains the global Sentinel-2 archive, from 2016 to the present, processed to L2A (bottom-of-atmosphere).
The Chloris Global Biomass 2003 - 2019 dataset provides estimates of stock and change in aboveground biomass for Earth's terrestrial woody vegetation ecosystems during the period 2003 - 2019, at annual time steps. The global dataset has a circa 4.6 km spatial resolution.
Status and trends on U.S. forest location, health, growth, mortality, and production, from the U.S. Forest Service's Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program
The Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) algorithm combines information from the GPM satellite constellation to estimate precipitation over the majority of the Earth's surface.
ALOS World 3D is a global digital surface model (DSM) with a horizontal resolution of approximately 30 meters, constructed from the Panchromatic Remote-sensing Instrument for Stereo Mapping (PRISM) on board Advanced Land Observing Satellite (ALOS).
Copernicus DEM 30 is a near-global digital surface model (DSM) with a horizontal resolution of approximately 30 meters, derived from radar satellite data acquired during the TanDEM-X mission.
Copernicus DEM 90 is a near-global digital surface model (DSM) with a horizontal resolution of approximately 90 meters, derived from radar satellite data acquired during the TanDEM-X mission.
3DEP Lidar collection for the Height Above Ground (HAG or Elevation) Cloud Optimized Geotiffs (COGs). All USGS HAG COG STAC items will be associated with this STAC collection.
The ASTER instrument, launched on-board NASA's Terra satellite in 1999, provides multispectral images of the Earth at 15m-90m resolution. This dataset contains ASTER data from 2000-2006.
Landsat Collection 2 Level-2 data from the Thematic Mapper (TM) onboard Landsat 4 and 5, the Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) onboard Landsat 7, and the Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Thermal Infrared Sensor (TIRS) onboard Landsat 8 and 9.
The Sentinel-2 program provides global imagery in thirteen spectral bands at 10m-60m resolution and a revisit time of approximately five days. This dataset contains the global Sentinel-2 archive, from 2016 to the present, processed to L2A (bottom-of-atmosphere).
Collection of Land Cover products for Canada as produced by Natural Resources Canada using Landsat satellite imagery. This collection of cartographic products offers classified Land Cover of Canada at a 30 metre scale, updated on a 5 year basis.
The UDA Cropland Data Layer is an annual raster, geo-referenced, crop-specific land cover data layer produced using satellite imagery and extensive agricultural ground truth collected during the current growing season.
The gridded National Soil Survey Geographic Database (gNATSGO) is a USDA-NRCS Soil & Plant Science Division (SPSD) composite database that provides complete coverage of the best available soils information for all areas of the United States and Island Territories
NOAA's Climate Data Records (CDRs) are robust, sustainable, and scientifically sound climate records that provide trustworthy information on how, where, and to what extent the land, oceans, atmosphere and ice sheets are changing.
