CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Active tectonics, Digital Elevation Model analysis, and remote sensing in GEON PI Meeting update J Ramón Arrowsmith Department of Geological Sciences, Arizona State University, m m With Jeff Conner, Chris Crosby, and Gilead Wurman
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Activities SCEC workshop –SCEC CME/GEON Servlets –ASTER satellite image processing (imsservlet) –Lidar processing (lservlet) –Visualization (gservlet) –Logging (logservlet)
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES SCEC-CME/GEON ties Workflow construction: Bertram and Yolanda are in touch, but the geoscience level is not as involved GIS (SCEC is weak there, but the community needs it) Resources in GEON are available as services; GMT vs. GIS. Could be good to have a goal for interoperability at AGU. ARCIMS gmt arcgrid ascii format send it the file and get a color image back. Shapefiles send to dynamic arcims session back. Base data for SOCAL. Visualization: LA3D/SCEC VIDEO spherical coordinate system with no fixed reference point Alpha stage; GEON is weak there USR. Vis workshop in January. Could tie with IDV guys for VIDEO. USR for the greater rockies. How do we build a model for it? What are the difficulties? Should extrude the QFAULTS data PHIL: Can we put the systems together in a some way for the geological geophysical communities: look at the strengths CIG - code CME - models GEON – data Earthscope – has all the data flowing Meta system that takes advantage of all of the projects. Issue of open source: companies have scec or geon buy a site license? User community has access to that software. Would publicize the software for a larger community.

CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Servlet questions/issues Vs. webservice? Common technologies Load balancing (locally and on the grid) Portal implementation (local/main GEON)
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES GRASS-based LiDAR processing webservice Subset of Airborne Laser Swath Mapping (ALSM aka LiDAR) data from Oct. 16, 1999 Hector Mine earthquake (Mw 7.1) mapping. ~80,000 pts = 2.6 MB

CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Coming soon : -full function lservlet page with user control over various interpolation parameters (by GSA) -Jobs running on HP cluster at SDSC (by GSA??) -Capability to ingest and interpolate data of various projections -Enhanced functionality – hillshade etc.

CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES ASTER level-1B data have had system radiometric corrections and geometric coefficients applied and are reprojected to a given map projection “granules” available
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Connection Method ArcIMS, Java Servlet, Manager Program, Java Implemented Server
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Logging of activities Also needs to be there in the portal(s)
CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE GEOSCIENCES Software/GEON Node issues -see forum posts X-windows? Samba is running well Red Hat glibc libraries too old ARCIMS: –Raster/grids support? –Tomcat version 3 versus most-up-to- date version 4 on nodes (we have both running)
