Data Pool
Data Pool allows quick access to recently
processed data. Use the MISR order tool to obtain
ALL data products. The ASDC is currently in the
process of converting to an online archive. At
completion, all publicly available MISR data
should be online in the Data Pool.

MISR Terminology

• MISR orbits the earth 15 times/day.
• Orbit numbers indicate the number of revolutions
  since launch.
• 233 distinct orbit paths repeat every 16 days.
• Each of these 16 days is referred to as a Data
  Day.
• Each path is divided into 180 blocks.
• Paths overlap, allowing near global coverage in
  9 days.
