7. DATASET OVERVIEW
7.1 Abstract
The CEOP satellite datasets are geo-coded data resampled to regular latitude longitude grid on
three type scales: reference site scale, monsoon scale, and global scale. It is easy to compare
satellite data with in-situ measurement and or model output. Also, the satellite datasets include
radiance data and geo-physical parameter such as soil moisture, vegetation index, water vapor,precipitation, sea surface temperature and so on, which are retrieved from data of MODIS, AMSRE, SSM/I, PR, TMI, AVNIR2, PALSAR and PRISM.
The CEOP-MODIS datasets are generated on 35 reference sites, 5 monsoon regions and global during
EOP-3 date period.

10. DATA POLICY
10.1 Data Policy by the Data Provider
1. No financial implications are involved for the CEOP satellite data exchange.
2. Commercial use and exploitation of CEOP satellite data is prohibited.
3. Any re-export or transfer of the original data received from the CEOP satellite data archive
to a third party is prohibited.
4. The origin of CEOP satellite data being used for publication of scientific results must be
acknowledged and referenced in the publication. Whenever CEOP satellite data distributed by theCEOP satellite data archive are being used for publication of scientific results, the data's origin
must be acknowledged as: ""The satellite data is provided under the framework of the CoordinatedEnhanced Observing Period (CEOP)."" for the Coordinated Enhanced Observing Period data (2001 2004), and as: ""The satellite data is provided under the framework of the Coordinated Energy andWater Cycle Observations Project (CEOP)."" for the Coordinated Energy and Water Cycle Observations
Project data (2005 ~).
5. Whenever CEOP satellite data distributed by the CEOP satellite data archive are being used for
publication of scientific results, the author(s) shall send a copy of the respective publication,
preferably in electronic form, to the CEOP satellite data archive (ceop@monsoon.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
in order to build up a CEOP publication library.
