NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) are responsible for hosting and providing public access to one of the most significant archives for environmental data on Earth with over 20 petabytes of comprehensive oceanic, atmospheric, and geophysical data. temperature, precipitation, wind, degree days, ocean profiles, ocean circulation, ocean salinity, sea The NOAA CoastWatch East Coast Node is hosted by the NOAA Chesapeake Bay Office.
Data Access Info HTTP Rolling Archive FTP Time Series Archive. Not all web services contain all NODC data sets.Thematic Realtime Environmental Distributed Data Services (THREDDS) Data Server (TDS) is a web server that provides metadata and data access for scientific datasets, using OPeNDAP, OGC WMS and WCS, HTTP, and other remote data access protocols. Combined, these technologies enable NODC to provide access to its data holdings and products through some of the commonly-used standardized Web services.Below is a short description of the data services implemented at NODC. /access/services.html Users of the Catalog can do a plain text search to locate datasets of interest across the regions, and then connect to their associated data access services in their application of choice. data.

Once found, the data can be downloaded with an easy-to-use checkout interface.

NODC has implemented numerous interoperable data technologies to enhance the discovery, understanding, and use of the vast quantities of oceanographic data in the NODC archives. This online tool allows a user to search for and download lidar, imagery, and land cover data—hosted by the NOAA Office for Coastal Management—by user-defined geography. We expose structured metadata via OAI-PMH. weather data. Model nowcast/forecast data from Global RTOFS is available as Network Common Data Format (NetCDF) and Open-source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol (OpenDAP) from the following locations: NCO Production FTP Server (NetCDF) latest run only; NCO Operational NOMADS ( NetCDF OpenDAP) latest + 1 day archive

File Transfer Protocol server (FTP) can be viewed using a browser by clicking the links to right, or by logging in using an FTP client. It can present distributed data sets as a unified virtual database, allow one to visualize data with on-the-fly graphics, and request custom subsets of variables in a choice of file formats.
