Soil moisture is a vital climatic variable driving environmental and biological processes. Large scale soil moisture can be estimated using Land Surface Models or observed using active and passive microwave remote sensing. Increasing availability of remotely sensed soil moisture retrievals has allowed for constraining Land Surface Model (LSM) estimates. Though the accuracy of remote sensing datasets is constrained by soil roughness, vegetation, and surface temperature, combining them with LSMs allow us to reduce errors in soil moisture estimates. This study assimilates the SMOPs-ASCAT, ESA-CCI and SMAP soil moisture retrievals into a land surface model u sing an ensemble Kalman filter. The open-loop and data assimilated soil moisture outputs are evaluated against the ground-based sensor data. This demonstrates the establishment of an Indian Land Data Assimilation System (ILDAS) with the goal of providing accurate soil moisture products at high spatial and temporal resolution over India.
