Sample Data

NISAR Sample Data Product Suite

The table below provides a list of all the planned NISAR data products, a short description, a link to where you can download them, and a link to the product specification for each product.

The Algorithmic Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) describing the detailed algorithms used to create these products can be found here for Levels 1 and 2 and here for Level 3 Soil Moisture.

The Alaska Satellite Facility has developed tutorial that explains how to work with the data, and how it can be used in GIS systems. View the tutorial here.
