Executive editor
This paper presents an open-source software package for earth observation data accessing, reformatting, and visualization. This tool can be useful to the broad science community and stakeholders for effective use of remote sensing products. It lowers the technical barriers and simplifies the process of accessing earth observation data. It works for multiple operating platforms.
Short summary
We present an open-source platform in response to the NASA Open-Source Science Initiative for accessing and presenting quantitative remote-sensing earth observation,and climate data. With our platform scientists, stakeholders and concerned citizens can engage in the exploration, modeling, and understanding of data. We envisioned this platform as lowering the technical barriers and simplifying the process of accessing and leveraging additional modeling frameworks for data.
