Description:
The JPL Space Garden features systems in current use at JPL for processing and visualization of science data returned by instruments flown on various NASA spacecraft:
1 The Science Analysis Graphics Environment (SAGE), a graphical interface used to control processing of imaging data returned by solar system exploration spacecraft, including the Galileo spacecraft currently returning data from Jupiter.
2 Mission operations support software used by the Mars Pathfinder mission that landed on Mars on 4 July 1997, providing stereoscopic mission planning tools that support rover navigation on the Martian surface.
3 Animated “fly-over” sequences produced from data of the Earth and other planets.
4 VISTAS, an interactive tool for query/retrieval of earth observations data acquired by the TOVS sensor.
5 A prototype of software for processing Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) data.
6 Internet-accessible image database browsers and navigators that provide public access to space mission image archives.
7 Other examples of processing operational data.
