Welcome to the ECHO Data Partner community. ECHO Partners are encouraged to network within the community in developing XML code and tools for accessing data. To learn more about NASA data you can download one of NASA's Earth Science Data Resources and Data Set Reference Sheets.
The ECHO Data Partners are a diverse group of organizations that is continuously growing. Represented here are the current members:
The Alaska Satellite Facility (ASF) is under contract to acquire, process, archive, and distribute satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data for research communities. ASF will use ECHO to provide access to all ASF datasets : http://www.asf.alaska.edu/

Land Processes, Distributed Active Archive Center. LP DAAC's role includes the high-level processing and distribution of ASTER data, and the distribution of MODIS land products derived from data acquired by Terra and Aqua satellites: http://lpdaac.usgs.gov/
Contact: 605-594-6116, edc@eos.nasa.gov
Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Distributed Active Archive Center. A source for biogeochemical and ecological data useful for studying environmental processes. These data have been collected on the ground, from aircraft, or by satellite or have been generated by computer models. The extent of data ranges from site-specific to global, and durations range from days to years: http://www.daac.ornl.gov/
