NASA’s Land, Atmosphere Near Real-Time Capability for Earth Observing Systems (LANCE) supports a host of near real-time (NRT) monitoring applications from air quality to wildfires to flooding to droughts to severe storms. LANCE distributes 40-75 TB of data per week from 13 instruments to a wide range of users in over 200 countries. Most of the data and imagery served through LANCE are available within three hours of satellite overpass. Leveraging the existing NASA infrastructure and science teams has made LANCE unique in its ability to provide data from instruments onboard Earth observing satellites rapidly, accurately, and consistently. LANCE continually ensures these data are findable, readily accessible, and freely available. The evolution of LANCE is ongoing, as it strives to enable researchers and applications users to quickly incorporate the latest satellite data into their work, leading to more timely and accurate understanding of the Earth’s land and atmosphere.
