Upgrade of MODIS land water distribution

We upgraded the MODIS/SRTM land - water distribution data set from version 6.0 to version 6.1. This global data set comes on MODIS sinusoidal grid tiles with 250 m grid resolution. The time period covered (annual maps) is 2000 through 2022...

Workshop "How to create publishable netCDF data?"

As an NFDI4earth EduHub, ICDC will provide an in-person workshop on 24+25 July.

The workshop deals with creating FAIR netCDF data. We encourage the attendees to bring their own data, but we will also provide data sets that can be used...

Extension of MODIS LAI - FAPAR data set

We extended the TERRA-MODIS Leaf Area Index (LAI) and Fraction of Absorbed Photosynthetically Active Radiation (FAPAR) product MOD15A2H, Collection 6.1, by data of the year 2024. The data are now available from 02/2000 through 12/2024 and come with 8-daily temporal resolution. You can choose between two flavours: data on...

ICDC Data Center

The Integrated Climate Data Center (ICDC) allows easy access to climate relevant data from in-situ measurements and satellite remote sensing. These data are important to determine the status and the changes in the climate system. Additionally some relevant re-analysis data are included, which are modeled on the basis of observational data.
