Created by Applied Science Associates, Inc under contract to NOAA using funds from the NOAA satellite R&O (research & operations) project

EDC is now compatible with ArcGIS 9.3

It is not necessary to register in order to download and use the EDC.
However registering and documenting users will help secure funds for future
enhancements and if there are improvements made to the EDC,
we will notify those who have registered.

Minimum requirements for installation:

  • ArcGIS 9.2 or ArcGIS 9.3

  • ArcGIS 9.2 Service Pack 3 (available for download at ESRI)

  • Java Run-Time Environment 6

  • .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.0

  • .NET Support for ArcGIS Desktop

  • The EDC is provided "as-is", with no support contract. Currently there are no plans (i.e. no funds) for immediate revisions or improvements. However with additional funding ASA is quite willing to make further modifications to the EDC, such as:

  • Compatibility with future ArcGIS releases

  • Adding in datasets served by ERD’s ERDDAP, a RESTful service that can access eight different protocols

  • OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium) standards

  • If you are interested in funding further improvements to the EDC
