This is a meta-repository which lists locations of code related to all tools and services software for NASA JPL's Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC).

The PO.DAAC is an element of the Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS). The EOSDIS provides science data to a wide community of users for NASA's Science Mission Directorate. PO.DAAC has become the premier data center for measurements focused on ocean surface topography (OST), sea surface temperature (SST), ocean winds, sea surface salinity (SSS), gravity, ocean circulation and sea ice.

This repository reflects an active catalog of all tools and services software pertaining to PO.DAAC data access. If you have a suggestion for a new tool or would like to update the content here, please open an issue or send a pull request.

Each repository has it's own README file e.g. data_animation/README.rst

In order to keep the submodules as defined in [.gitmodules](https://github.com/nasa/podaac_tools_and_services/blob/master/.gitmodules) up-to-date it is necessary to periodically push updates. You can safely execute this command to do so:

$ git submodule foreach git pull origin master
$ git status //you will then see the changes which have been mode
$ git add -A
$ git commit -m "Update submodules"
$ git push origin master
