The Ag Data Commons is migrating

The Ag Data Commons is migrating to a new institutional portal on Figshare. The current system is available for search and download only. The new platform is open for submission with assistance from Ag Data Commons curators. Please contact NAL-ADC-Curator@usda.gov, if you need to publish or update your datasets.

PhenoCam images from ARSLTARMDCR site, Caroline County, Maryland, USA since 2017

    This data set consists of repeat digital imagery from a tower-mounted digital camera (hereafter, PhenoCam) maintained by the USDA-ARS Hydrology Remote Sensing Laboratory (HRSL) in the Lower Chesapeake Bay (LCB) watershed. HRSL is a member of the PhenoCam network, which has as its mission to serve as a long-term, continental-scale, phenological observatory. Imagery is uploaded to the PhenoCam server every 30 minutes.

      Choptank Experimental Watershed Soil Moisture Network

        A network of soil moisture and soil temperature profiles as well as solar radiation and precipitation gages are distributed throughout the central region of the DelMarVa peninsula to capture variability of these parameters to give a broad understanding of agricultural conditions in this domain. Soil profile data is captured at depths of 5, 10, 20, and 50 cm below the surface and recorded hourly at locations on the edges of agricultural fields, not inside the production fields.

        SGP97 GCIP/EOP Surface: Precipitation NCEP/EMC 4KM Gridded Data (GRIB) Radar Est. w/bias removal UBR -2001

        NAL Geospatial Catalog
          The temporal coverage for this dataset is as follows: Begin datetime: 1997-04-23 00:00:00, End datetime: 2001-12-31 23:59:59. This dataset contains the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Environmental Modeling Center (EMC) 4 KM GRIB radar estimate after bias removal ("UBR") data. A prototype, real-time, hourly, multi-sensor National Preciptation Analysis (NPA) has been developed at NCEP in cooperation with the Office of Hydrology (OH). This analysis merges two data sources that are currently being collected in real-time by OH and NCEP.
