AB: In early 2004 NASA will launch Aura, the EOS chemistry mission. The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences (GES) Data and Information Services Center (DISC) Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) will be the archive for data from three of the four Aura instruments (HIRDLS, MLS and OMI), while data from the fourth instrument (TES) will be available from the NASA Langley Research Center's DAAC. This presentation will focus on the standard science data products from Aura that will be made available to users from the NASA GES DAAC. The higher level data products from Aura will all share a standard format (HDF-EOS 5) and a common layout, thus allowing for simplified access for intercomparisons between the measurements from the different instruments. The GES DAAC will assist users in using the Aura data by providing access routines, and an easy to use data search mechanism for ordering and downloading the Aura data. All data products from the NASA GES DAAC are available free to the public.
