Description:The future of humans is fundamentally tied to preserving the habitability of planet Earth through safeguarding existing habitats and the sustainable use of natural resources. As the possibility of satellite-based remote sensing of Earth reached maturity in the post-Apollo era, the need to conduct systematic global measurements from space to support Earth System Science was outlined in the Bretherton report of 1986 (1). The report called for the development of an advanced information system—the Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS). This would process and distribute data to describe and elucidate changes in Earth system processes through long-term global observations and subsequently allow scientists to develop new models to simulate and predict future Earth system changes. Originally aiming to support models describing Earth system dynamics and how Earth observations are tied to processes, regimes, and feedbacks in the Earth system, the EOSDIS has evolved into today’s Earth Information System (EIS).
