Plotting SMAP data in LAS
• Following slides show how to plot SMAP data using one particular tool available from PO.DAAC: Live Access Server (LAS) • LAS can be used to compare SMAP data:• RSS 40 km 8-day running mean• RSS 70 km 8-day running mean
• It is also capable of generating time series of averaged data (e.g., over an area)

Recap of LAS Instructions
19
• http://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov => Go to to drop-down menu under ”Data Access”. Click on “LAS (L3 subsetting)” • Go to ”Data Set” (RSS 40-km & 70-km and JPL 60-km SMAP Salinity data
sets available at 8-day running mean and monthly resolutions)• Click on the desired data set• To subset, put in coordinates to define desired box
• Underneath the map on the left hand side of LAS interface• Select time range• Select desired output (lat-lon map; time series; Hovmoller diagrams)
• At the top right corner, clicking on “Save As…” gives you option to save output as: NetCDF; ASCII; CSV; arcGrid.
• Other tools include Animate, Correlation Viewer, etc.
