Developing Geospatial Data Analysis Building Blocks (GABBS)

Abstract

Geospatial Data Analysis Building Blocks (GABBs) is an NSF-funded Data Infrastructure Building Blocks (DIBBS) project to create a powerful yet easy-to-use web-based system that provides the software building blocks allowing researchers. who are typically not a computer expert, to self-manage, curate, share, analyze, and visualize geospatial data for their research. This opens the way for rapid development of a variety of web-enabled interactive tools for probing and presenting geospatial data. The development of GABBS building blocks is driven by the requirements from several user communities, including hydrologic modeling and data sharing, applied economics modeling workflow, meteorological data management and visualization, K-12 education tools, and high education course development with online modeling support. GABBs also integrate XSEDE resources, Globus, iRODS and other cyberinfrastructure support, enabling large scale computation and data capabilities for the user community. This poster will present the design and implementation of the GABBS software consisting of geospatial data management functions that are integrated into HUBzero’s Project data space, software and hardware based mapping libraries and map viewer widgets for geospatial tool development, and dynamic invocation of data analysis tools from the Hub Project data space.<div><br></div><div>Team members include: Larry Biehl, Rajesh Kalyanam, Rob Campbell, Betsy Hillery, Carolyn Ellis, Derrick Kearney, Leif Delgass, Kevin Wojkovich, Erich Huebner, Hou-Jen Ko, Nelson Villoria, Venkatesh Merwarde, Adnan Rajib, Jaewoo Shin, I Luk Kim</div> <div> <div> <div> <p> <br></p> </div> </div> </div
