Searching for NEON data? Explore the new portal! Based on user testing and discussions with the scientific community, NEON redesigned the data portal to improve overall usability and accessibility.

New data portal features

  • A more visually appealing and intuitive way to discover data products by data theme, location and date range
  • Live status bars that display product search and retrieval progress
  • Data retrieval customization options, including relevant documentation
  • Logged-in users can save queries and retrieve them later using citation codes

Data availability

All organismal data available via the previous data portal are now available on the new data portal, including:

  • Ground beetles sampled from pitfall traps
  • Plant phenology observations
  • Plant presence and percent cover
  • Small mammal box trapping
  • Herbaceous clip harvest

Products undergoing reprocessing

  • 2D Wind Speed and Direction
  • Single Aspirated Air Temperature
  • Triple Aspirated Air Temperature
  • Barometric Pressure
  • IR Biological Temperature
  • Precipitation (Secondary Precipitation subproduct)
  • Shortwave Radiation (Direct and Diffuse Pyranometer)
  • Shortwave Radiation (Primary Pyranometer)
  • Shortwave and Longwave Radiation (Net Radiometer)
  • Photosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR)
  • Spectral Sun Photometer - Calibrated Sky Radiances
  • Photosynthetically Active Radiation (Quantum Line)

Protocol availability

NEON also recently added more than 20 protocols and 9 science designs to the Document Library on the data portal, for both terrestrial and aquatic observations.
