GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Background 5-year NASA REASoN project (GPS Data Products): deliver analysis products using newer IT standards Portlet-based web portal; web 2.0 (mapping, inter-portlet communication) Develop/use standard formats (XML) and methods (web services) for improved metadata and data exchange NASA ACCESS project (MOSES): users perform modeling via portlets Apply various time series models (QOCA, RDAHMM) Extend to INDIGO: integration of multiple space geodetic techniques Leverage GPS Explorer technologies GNSS/VLBI/SLR/DORIS: provide uniform methods of data retrieval
GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Framework Uses the java-based windows in web portal with user controls; can be used in other portal frameworks (JSR-168 standard) user accounts; save data/results for future viewing Employs a workflow/dashboard approach users select and save groups of GPS sites via mapping portlet. Data queries, modeling operations are performed on these in other tabbed pages. Inter-portlet communication Dynamic content produced via calls to back-end web services
GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Portal: Content Mapping Interface SOMI: Scripps Online Mapping Interface University of Minnesota MapServer; input data layers stored at SOPAC (e.g., fault lines) Draw bounding boxes to dynamically select sites Recent performance boost - faster map loading Migrating to OpenLayers open source version of Google Maps Processed GPS coordinates millions of xyz coordinates from SOPAC/JPL/REASON combination/PBO combination dynamically queryable and exportable to urls GPS Time Series, Velocities, Strain Maps
GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Web Demonstration
GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Portal: Geophysical Resource Web Services Standardized approach to data submission/retrieval Inter-agency data exchange of processing metadata, coordinates Use XML standards Geography Markup Language (GML): represent features/geometry/reference systems/time observation collections; filter encoding transfer XML via SOAP/web services Independent server-side code GPS Explorer is only a client Call web services from other web pages/sites, command-line utilities, etc.

GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Portal: INDIGO SOPAC and INDIGO Utilize IT resources and JPL collaboration in support of IGS Potential development areas: Include all GNSS sites at CDDIS/JPL/IGN Extend GPS Explorer capabilities to include SLR/VLBI/DORIS Site mapping Common data exploration/visualization tools Global Seamless Archive Center (publication of data archive holdings) Incorporate GPS analysis products Web services wrapper
GPS Explorer - IGS AC Workshop - Miami 2008 GPS Explorer Portal: Future Focus on IGS support via INDIGO How can GPSE serve as common interface for user access to data/metadata? Add “Products” tab Portal name change? Evaluate/implement feedback from user survey, NASA website developers Ingest/display new data sources Cross-browser compatibility Interactive Strain Maps
