Snow Data Assimilation System (SNODAS)

The Snow Data Assimilation System (SNODAS) offers a suite of data products focused on detailed snow characteristics across various regions. These products are made available through the National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC), a leading institution for polar and cryospheric research and a part of CIRES at the University of Colorado Boulder.

Users can access information related to snow depth, snow water equivalent, and other snowpack properties, which are critical for environmental monitoring, water resource management, and climate studies. NSIDC, which includes the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) and NOAA at NSIDC, ensures the accessibility and usability of these valuable datasets for a wide range of scientific and practical applications.
