Obtaining ASTER Data
ASTER is an on-demand instrument. This means that data is only acquired over
a location if a request has been submitted to observe that area. Any data that
ASTER has already acquired are available by searching and ordering those
data from the Japanese
GDS IMS
system or NASA Reverb.
Billable orders must be processed through the GDS IMS interface.
A summary of ASTER data access policies is available from the LPDAAC:
https://lpdaac.usgs.gov/products/aster_policies
Processing of Level 1A data to Level 1B is provided on demand through NASA Reverb and the Japanese ASTER GDS. Higher level data products
are also produced on demand; instructions for
requesting these products can be found by following the links at the left. To request
that ASTER acquire
new data, please see instructions found at the link "New Acquisition." If you
have scheduled an acquisition coincident with a field campaign, you can see if
your acquisition has been scheduled by going to the "Acquisition Calendar."
