GeoBrain will mobilize NASA 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 standards-compliant, open,
distributed, three-tier web information system. The
system will make petabytes of NASA EOS data and information,
especially those in the ECS data pools, as easily accessible
as their local resources, to higher-education users,
both professors and students. The system will allow
users to dynamically and collaboratively develop interoperable,
web-executable geospatial service modules and models,
and run them on-line against any part of the petabytes
of archived data, to get back customized information
products rather than raw data. This project will bring
a data-enhanced geospatial learning and research environment
to the desktops of students and professors that they
have never previously experienced before. At the end
of the project, we expect that at least 100 universities
worldwide will routinely use GeoBrain in teaching and
research, with more than 1,000 copies of the GeoBrain
client installed. In addition, the project will contribute
experience in developing both consensus-based standards
and standards-compliant, interoperable, distributed
web information systems to the Federation and to SEEDS's
standards and interfaces processes, technology infusion,
and architecture and software reuse study teams.
