The CDR Inventory

The CDR Inventory is an open resource to explore existing and planned data records from space agency sponsored activities and provides a unique source of information on Climate Data Records (CDRs) available internationally. Access links to the data are provided within the inventory, alongside details of the data provenance, integrity and application to climate monitoring.

Climate Data Records

The inventory houses information on Climate Data Records (CDRs) provided mostly by CEOS and CGMS member agencies. The inventory is a structured repository for the characteristics of two types of GCOS ECV CDRs:

- Climate data records that exist and are accessible, including frequently updated interim CDRs
- Climate data records that are planned to be delivered

The inventory has been continuously updated by data producers and curators, with the latest versions of the database published on a yearly basis to provide the users with more up-to-date information, and to support Gap Analysis exercises. For any question, please contact ecv_inventory@eumetsat.int.
