PI Digital Earth Goes to WESTGIS Conference with JPLSeptember
11, 2000 Position Integrity's "Digital Earth" application will be highlighted as the display engine behind NASA/JPL's new satellite-based imagery datasets at WESTGIS in Sacramento from September 10-13, 2000. The combined suite is being demonstrated at this conference for the benefit of geospatial experts from the civilian, scientific and military GIS communities and the technology showcase includes the GeoTIFF 2 Distributed Database Prototype. Based on the Web Mapping Testbed (WMT) specifications for open and interoperable data dissemination, a Position Integrity "thick client" running on a Silicon Graphics / Windows NT workstation will let conference users roam, pan and zoom a variety of JPL generated maps, imagery and colorized shaded relief depictions.
In addition a "thin client" using Netscape's web browser running on a portable Macintosh will show Internet connectivity to the same data being presented to users by a Position Integrity web server in Irvine, CA.
An informative poster board describing the demonstration and GeoTIFF architecture is available for view and download by clicking on the links below.
