ASF is a leader in cloud-based data processing, teaching, and research collaboration
Remote sensing data is a powerful tool for observing and understanding Earth processes. But finding the right data can seem overwhelming and using the data may seem too complicated. At ASF we recognize this, and our teams work continuously to streamline data discovery and processing for a broad range of users.
To access ASF data through our tools and applications you will need to create a free NASA Earthdata Login account. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions, please contact us!

Jupyter-based development platform
ASF’s OpenScienceLab opens a door to the world of remote sensing data processing in the cloud via a JupyterLab environment. It is easy to launch in any web browser for algorithm development and interactive data exploration.
OpenScienceLab provides:
- Free (limited) access to a cloud-hosted JupyterHub
- Free fast data transfer to users’ storage from ASF AWS archives
- Identical, fully configured, persistent computing software and hardware environments that are shared by multiple users
- An open library of data recipes
- A cloud-hosted JupyterHub SSO platform in Amazon AWS and a JupyterLab development environment, with authenticated accounts and persistent storage
- A workspace perfect for scientific collaboration requiring
- Large datasets
- Complicated development environments
- Repeatability
- Custom OSL deployments for research teams and classes
- Deployments are tailored to your use-case and offer the exact computational resources required to prevent unnecessary AWS costs
- An ideal environment for class settings where student computing resources may be limited

Custom OpenScienceLab deployments you own
The OpenScienceLab team provides custom JupyterHub deployments based on our flagship OpenSARLab deployment. This service is ideal for researchers who require additional compute resources, have specific needs for their environment, and for teaching students in a workshop or classroom setting.
Custom deployments can be configured with any combination of computational resources. We can help estimate resource requirements and will work with you to minimize AWS costs as usage data becomes available.
Take full ownership of your OSL deployment. After one month you are free to take your instance of OSL and use it however you wish, for example, in the development of non-open source tools or to host in your own AWS account.
