GLSC Scientist Awarded Funds to Pilot Data Delivery System for Underwater Drone Data
A Scalable System for Geospatial Delivery of Hi-Res Data Products From Mobile Monitoring Platforms
Dr. Peter Esselman won a grant from USGS's Community for Data Integration to serve high-resolution underwater imagery and mapping products to the public via a cloud-based mapping service. The project, entitled "A Scalable System for Geospatial Delivery of Hi-Res Data Products From Mobile Monitoring Platforms", will be implemented with colleagues from the USGS California Water Science Center and the USGS Hydrologic Networks Branch. The objective of the proposal is to demonstrate a data delivery system that can be used to discover, visualize, and access high-resolution geospatial data collected by mobile monitoring platforms like autonomous underwater vehicles. The work will highlight datasets from the Great Lakes and the Delaware River estuary and make them available for download by users, and if successful, will have utility to data collected by a wide variety of platforms used by USGS, including aerial drones.
