GeoBrain
GeoBrain will mobilize NASA Earth Observing System (EOS) data and information through Web service and knowledge management technologies for higher-education teaching and research. The technologies, based on geo-object and geo-tree concepts, will be implemented in a Web information system that makes huge sets of NASA EOS data and information easily accessible to faculty and students. The system will allow users to dynamically and collaboratively develop interoperable, Web-executable geospatial service modules and models, and run them online against any part of the archived data, to get back customized information products rather than raw data. George Mason University's Laboratory for Advanced Information Technology and Standards is conducting this innovative project.
