DISCOVER is supported by the NASA Earth Science MEaSUREs Project.

MEaSUREs (Making Earth Science Data Records for Use in Research Environments) supports the NASA Earth Science research community in providing Earth science data products and services driven by NASA’s Earth Science goals.

MEaSUREs projects focus on the creation of Earth System Data Records (ESDRs), including Climate Data Records. An ESDR is defined as a unified and coherent set of observations of a given parameter of the Earth system, which is optimized to meet specific requirements in addressing science questions. These records are critical to understanding Earth System processes, to assessing variability, long-term trends, and change in the Earth System, and to provide input and validation means to modeling efforts.
