14. 14 Current data access Spatial data is available with a spatial client Soils STATSGO tabular and spatial data is available through a web service. KMZ files are made manually within ArcMAP. KMZ files are then displayed on a Google Earth Map. Many varying KMZ files are hosted on our web servers. HDF files currently are large and cumbersome to extract datasets. Manual file manipulation is currently required. HYSPLIT model KMZ files procedure has yet to be defined Images are made manually using MATLAB and GrADS.

15. 15 Proposed Access to Data Web Services Continue to create web services to access spatial data Create a technique to quickly parse HDF files Create a new service to return KMZ files Create a service to make images Data Integration Temporal – over days Spatial – over grids

19. 19 Custom Visualization Contents Navigation Map Terraserver Data Imagery DLG ArcSDE Data Sole Purpose To display the web service data

20. 20 Custom Visualization (cont’d) Browser Navigation Terraserver Data ArcSDE Data Soils Land Use Land Cover NPS Fires

21. 21 Issues State soil and land use/cover KMZ files too large to display with Google Maps. Google Earth Plug-in only supports IE 6/7 and Mac 10+, no Linux, no IE8, no W2K8. Microsoft Virtual Earth API not as developed as Google API; however, it also has 3D component.

22. 22 Proposal Continue development of web services: –HDF2KMZ; –ArcSDE2KMZ, ArcSDE2GML. –ArcSDE2TBL (for the attributes) Customize/design 2D Visualization tools. Customize/design 3D Visualization tools. Integrate new tools and tool components into VIEWS/TSS
