NASA's Big Earth Data Initiative Accomplishments

The goal of NASA's effort for BEDI is to improve the usability, discoverability, and accessibility of Earth Observation data in support of societal benefit areas. Accomplishments: In support of BEDI goals, datasets have been entered into Common Metadata Repository(CMR), made available via the Open-source Project for a Network Data Access Protocol (OPeNDAP), have a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) registered for the dataset, and to support fast visualization many layers have been added in to the Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS)

The Next Generation of NASA Rapid Response: Worldview Snapshots

The NASA Rapid Response system started in 2001 by serving static subsets of Near Real Time MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) imagery acquired from the Terra satellite. Over this time, Rapid Response has been used to support near real time applications such as wildfire and sea ice mapping for hundreds of thousands of users. In 2011, the toolset expanded to include GIBS, the Global Imagery Browse Services, which provides a web map tiling service of over 700 imagery products, and Worldview (https://worldview.earthdata.nasa.gov/), an interactive web application that showcases the products available in GIBS. This year a new application, Worldview Snapshots, has been added to complete the toolset by providing a flexible, low bandwidth method to download personalized subsets for those who do not need or cannot use a fully featured web mapping application. The original Rapid Response subset tool has been retired and we thank it for its seventeen years of service. Stop by to learn more about the next generation of NASA Rapid Response
