Popis: Analysis incorporating geoscience data from different data sources entails dealing with their immense variety and volume. Until now, combining, for example, two or more different swath datasets from spaceborne observations has been a tedious, laborious process, limiting the scalability of potentially impactful integrative analyses. With the technologies developed in the NASA-funded SpatioTemporal Adaptive Resolution Encoding (STARE) project, we have made strides towards enabling scalable integrative analysis of diverse, voluminous geoscience data. Using STARE as a consistent geo-spatiotemporal indexing scheme to unify different data sources according to spatiotemporal colocation, spatiotemporal data co-alignment can thus be maintained on distrib-uted/parallel/Cloud resources to minimize costly and often unnecessary data transfer and communication, and to drastically improve scalability.
