Description of Satellite Images Processing in Greenland Application
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Abstract. Our society needs and environmental predictions encourage the applications development, oriented on supervising and analyzing different Earth Science related phenomena. This paper experiments new methods in satellite images processing throughout the GreenLand application. Visual descriptions of these methods represent one of the main objectives of this platform, new features and concepts being defined for this purpose. GreenLand facilitates the complex workflows (called hyper-graphs) development, based on two editor tools. The gProcess and ESIP (Environment Oriented Satellite Data Processing Platform) platforms have an important role in their development, by providing services for workflow creation and management. Due to large volume of data that need to be processed, the GreenLand operators and workflows are executed over the Grid infrastructure. This platform offers high storage and computing resources, capable of applying parallel and distributed execution techniques.
