Project Details
- Daily demonstrations of several interactive JPL systems for processing and visualizing science data returned by spacecraft instruments in earth orbit.
- 1 - The Science Analysis Graphics Environment (SAGE) is a graphical interface to control processing of data returned by the 1997 Pathfinder mission to Mars.
- 2 - VISTAS is an interactive tool for query and retrieval of earth observation data acquired by the TOVS sensor.
- 3 - A working prototype of processing software for the Atmospheric Infra-Red Sounder (AIRS).
- 4 - Animation and "fly-by" systems to explore Mars, Jupiter, and Venus.
- 5 - Internet-accessible image database browsers and navigators for public access to mission archives.
- 6 - Current work focusing on processing of operational data.
