Website Issues
NCDC wishes to keep its web pages free of functionality problems (including broken links and/or missing images). To report website issues, please send an email to ncdc.webmaster@noaa.gov.

World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Resolution 40 NOAA Policy
NCDC data and products that contain international data may have conditions placed on their international commercial use. They can be used within the United States or for noncommercial international activities without restriction. Redistribution of these data by others must provide this same notification. The non-U.S. data cannot be redistributed for commercial purposes. For details, please consult the WMO policy.
If you have questions about NCDC's implementation of this resolution, please contact NCDC at 828-271-4800 or ncdc.orders@noaa.gov.
Online Store
All online data are now free to access and download for all customers. In addition, customers can order a variety of items such as CD-ROMs, DVDs, and posters through the Online Store. The Online Store also provides service for our partner Data Centers—the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) and the the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC)—and their products.
NOTE: Most offline services require an additional charge. Prepayment is required, and your customer service representative will inform you of the cost. NCDC accepts Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, wire transfers, and Automated Clearing House. Please refer to the NNDC Non-Federal Customer Payment Policy for additional information.
Check Order Status
Once you have received your order number, you can check the status of your order on the Check Order Status page.
Certified Data
Most states require records that are submitted as evidence in a court of law to be authenticated in some way. To accommodate this requirement, NCDC offers Department of Commerce certification of the data maintained in our archives. See the Certification of Data page for further information.
Data Issues
If you are a NOAA employee and have issues to report regarding the quality of NOAA data, you may file a report through Datzilla. Non-NOAA employees can send an email to ncdc.orders@noaa.gov.
