SICE provides an\u00a0open access toolchain<\/a>\u00a0to generate\u00a0open access data<\/a>\u00a0of snow and ice optical products for the land ice cryosphere and 100% snow covered areas. The vision is to extend the coverage of NASA MODIS data into the future now with Sentinel-3A operating since Oct 2016 and Sentinel-3B since 2018.<\/p>\n
