Watch System

Working with satellite data, has long been an issue for users which has often prevented from a wider use of these data because of Volume, Access, Format and Data Combination. The purpose of the Storm Ice Oil Wind Wave Watch System (SIOWS) developed at Satellite Oceanography Laboratory (SOLab) is to solve the main issues encountered with satellite data and to provide users with a fast and flexible tool to select and extract data within massive archives that match exactly its needs or interest improving the efficiency of the monitoring system of geophysical conditions in the Arctic. SIOWS - is a Web GIS, designed to display various satellite, model and in situ data, it uses developed at SOLab storing, processing and visualization technologies for operational and archived data. It allows synergistic analysis of both historical data and monitoring of the current state and dynamics of the "ocean-atmosphere-cryosphere" system in the Arctic region, as well as Arctic system forecasting based on thermodynamic models with satellite data assimilation.

Operational Information

Today, remote sensing data are an important source of operational information about the environment for thematic GIS, this data can be used for the development of water, forestry and agriculture management, in the ecology and nature management, with territorial planning, etc. To solve the problem of ensuring the effective use of the space activities’results in the Krasnoyarsk Territory a United Regional Remote Sensing Center was created. On the basis of the Center, a new satellite receiving complex of FRC KSC SB RAS was put into operation. It is currently receiving satellite data from TERRA, AQUA, Suomi NPP and FENG-YUN satellites. Within the framework in cooperation with the Siberian Regional Center for Remote Sensing the Earth, an archive of satellite data from domestic Resource-P and Meteor-M2 satellites was created. The work considers some features of softwaredevelopment and technological support tools for loading, processing and publishing remote sensing data. The product is created in the service-oriented paradigm based on geoportal technologies and interactive web-cartography. The focus in this article is paid to the peculiarities of implementing the software components of the web GIS, the efficient processing and presentation of geospatial data.

Parallel processing methods in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are traditionally used to accelerate the calculation of large data volumes with sophisticated spatial algorithms. Such kinds of acceleration can also be applied to provide real-time GIS applications to improve the responsiveness of user interactions with the data. This paper presents a method to enable this approach for Web GIS applications. It uses the JavaScript 3D graphics API (WebGL) to perform client-side parallel real-time computations of 2D or 2.5D spatial raster algorithms on the graphics card. The potential of this approach is evaluated using an example implementation of a hillshade algorithm. Performance comparisons of parallel and sequential computations reveal acceleration factors between 25 and 100, mainly depending on mobile or desktop environments.

Insight Into

My research explores the question: how can theorists better understand the ways in which planning technologies are used by municipal planners? In the case-study municipality, a recently introduced web-GIS technology had little demonstrable success in attaining two of its stated goals: enabling increased public access to municipal geographic information and encouraging planners to produce their own maps. My research links these outcomes not only to the technologies themselves, but to organizational structure and human agency. Planners and planning theorists can gain additional insight into the impact of planning technologies through closer attention to the process through which planners come to use information technologies and the way this process both alters and is constrained by existing organizational constraints, including previously adopted technologies.
