The program aims to identify, assess, and acquire data from commercial providers who offer a cost-effective means of supplementing Earth observations collected by NASA, other U.S. Government agencies, and international collaborators. During this webinar, our speakers will share an update on the CSDA program’s activities and progress. They will cover the range of data modalities available through the program, introduce a new Cal/Val initiative, provide updates on the data evaluation process, review the status of current contracts with CSDA data providers, and discuss future on‑ramps for additional commercial data sources. In addition, CSDA program leadership will speak to end-user licensing agreements, data availability and access, new data archive and tasking capabilities available through the Satellite Data Explorer, user engagement opportunities, and new learning resources.
