    Web Map Apps using NASA's Earth Observing Fleet (2016)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Through the miracle of open web mapping services for satellite imagery, a garden of new applications has sprouted to monitor the planet across a variety of domains. The Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS) provide free and open access to full resolution imagery captured by NASAs Earth observing fleet. Spanning 15+ years and running through as recently as a few hours ago, GIBS aims to provide a general-purpose window into NASA's vast archive of the planet. While the vast nature of this archive can be daunting, many domain-specific applications have been built to meet the needs of their respective communities. This presentation will demonstrate a diverse set of these new applications which can take planetarium visitors into (virtual) orbit, guide fire resource managers to hotspots, help anglers find their next catch, illustrate global air quality patterns to local regulators, and even spur a friendly competition to find clouds which are shaped the most like cats. We hope this garden will continue to grow and will illustrate upcoming upgrades to GIBS which may open new pathways for development. data visualization, web services, open access

    No Pixel Left Behind: Interactively Visualizing ''Everything'' from NASA's Earth Observations (2019)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-01-18
    Description: The problem: satellite swath overlaps. Polar orbiting satellites like Terra, Aqua, and the joint NASA/NOAA Suomi-NPP satellite circle the globe from pole to pole, collecting data daily, swath by swath. Having this density of data is great for building a comprehensive mosaic of the planet, but sometimes there is something interesting occurring in one swath but is covered by a subsequent swath when the satellite passes over 90 minutes later. With our new prototype based on Worldview and the Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS), we combine the best of both worlds to interactively visualize the entire globe as a mosaic and allow the user to _peel away the overlaps_ to see every pixel that was observed by the satellite. This ability to look at every pixel - and to know when they were captured - is especially important near the poles where swath overlaps are most common.

    New Capabilities, Products and Usage of NASA Earth Imagery for Near Real Time Applications (2018)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: NASA's Worldview and Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS) have provided near real time (NRT) imagery to the public since 2011 and continue to add new capabilities and products. As a web map app for GIBS, Worldview (https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov) has recently added new features to support NRT applications such as a "before" and "after" comparison capability and support for geostationary imagery. As an open set of standards-based web map services, GIBS (https://earthdata.nasa.gov/gibs) has added several new NRT imagery products and will soon add new capabilities for better integration with Geographic Information System (GIS) clients. One of NASA's original NRT imagery systems and a long-running workhorse, Rapid Response, has been retired and replaced with a modern, mobile-friendly, and low-bandwidth app dubbed Worldview Snapshots (https://wvs.earthdata.nasa.gov). Finally, this presentation will demonstrate recent usage of these tools and services by those in the NRT community.
