The basic objective of MOSDAC is to archive and share Meteorological and Oceanographic geophysical data products from various national and international satellite missions through web based services. The purpose is to provide common platform for data exchange to ISRO, other Research community and Academic users.

Several organizations are involved in these efforts.

Under Meteorology & Oceanography Program (MOP) of ISRO, frontline research work is being conducted on geo-physical retrivals from Satellite observations and assimilation of this data in numerical models for atmospheric and oceanic studies. Through this site, this data set is being sought to be shared with other likeminded research & development scientists. Prime responsibility for the data population in MOSDAC rests with MOG.
