EDC Overview
The Environmental Data Connector (EDC) allows for easy access to distributed data from directly within ArcGIS, Matlab, R and Excel.
The EDC can access data served by OPeNDAP, THREDDS, ERDDAP, IOOS SOS and also local files. Users can search for and graphically select custom temporal and spatial data subsets, and then automatically download the subsets into the software application. The EDC can also extract data from within a user drawn polygon and along ship or animal tracks.
