Important ESDIS 2009 tasks review

This briefing provides an overview of the updates made to the HDF-EOS website, including the reorganization of its structure and the addition of new examples and software tools for accessing HDF-EOS data. It also highlights the evaluation of new tools and libraries, as well as the current work being done to enhance the HDF4/HDF-EOS2 and HDF5/OPeNDAP handlers.

  10. Definitions Visits – The total number of visits to the website. Pageviews – The total number of pages viewed on the website. Repeated views of a single page are counted. Pages/Visit – The average number of page views per visitor. Bounce Rate – The percentage of single-page visits. (Total number of visits viewing one page) / (Total number of visits) Avg. Time on Site – The average visit duration. % New visits – The percentage of visits by people who had never visited the website before. Organic – Web traffic which comes from unpaid listing at search engines or directories. Annual briefing to ESDIS

  21. Current work Annual briefing to ESDIS

  22. Current Work • Collect sample files for NASA HDF4/HDF-EOS2 products • Provide special HDF-EOS description for each sample file • Examine the access of each sample file with widely used tools • Provide the codes and the plots generated from the tools for each sample file Annual briefing to ESDIS

  23. Tools to access the HDF data • NCL • MatLab • IDL Annual briefing to ESDIS

  24. Datapool Example 1/7/2020 Annual briefing to ESDIS 24

  25. HDF OPeNDAP Work Update Annual briefing to ESDIS

  26. HDF5 –OPeNDAP Handler • Four official releases from OPeNDAP website • The latest release date is February 2010 • Add the support for HDF-EOS5 Aura swath files • Aura MLS, OMI, HIRDLS files are served via OPeNDAP • URL: http://opendap.org/download/hdf5_handler.html Annual briefing to ESDIS

  27. Access Aura MLS data via OPeNDAP http://hdfeos.org/software/ncl_opendap_mls.php Annual briefing to ESDIS

  28. HDF4 OPeNDAP Handler Annual briefing to ESDIS

  29. Phase 1 work review • Time: April 2009 – October 2009 • Enhanced the original HDF4-OPeNDAP handler • Some HDF-EOS2 data can be served via OPeNDAP • Provided a version to GES DISC Annual briefing to ESDIS

  30. Phase 2 work • Time: November 2009 – July 2010 • Goal: Enhance the HDF4-OPeNDAP handler so that more NASA HDF-EOS2 and HDF4 data can be served via OPeNDAP Annual briefing to ESDIS

  31. Phase 2 work • Comprehensive examinations of all NASA HDF-EOS2 data products - NASA Data pool in the previous slides • Come up with the re-design based on the examinations • Re-implement the HDF-EOS2 module of HDF4-OPeNDAP handler • Add the support for handling some NASA pure HDF4 data Annual briefing to ESDIS

  32. Phase 2 - Current Status • We finished the examination of NASA HDF-EOS2 products • We finished the design note of HDF-EOS2 module of HDF4-OPeNDAP handler • We finished implementing 90% features of the HDF-EOS2 module • We provided a customized version for GES DISC to test Annual briefing to ESDIS

  33. Phase 2 – Current Work Highlights • Focus on making the data accessible by Java-based OPeNDAP clients • Strictly Follow CF/COARD conventions • Handle different HDF-EOS2 cases Annual briefing to ESDIS

  34. Phase 2 work plan • Time: Now to July 14th, 2010 • Finish all features for the HDF-EOS2 module • Handle Hybrid HDF-EOS2 files • Handle some NASA HDF4 files Annual briefing to ESDIS

  35. HDF-EOS5 augmentation tool Annual briefing to ESDIS

  36. HDF-EOS5 and NetCDF-4 • Enabling NetCDF4 to access HDF-EOS5 data • Conversion • Augmentation • One file can be used for both EOS5 and NetCDF-4. • Note that EOS5 users are not affected at all. NetCDF-4 file Augmentation HDF-EOS5 file HDF-EOS5 Augmented HDF-EOS5 file NetCDF4 HDF5 HDF5 Annual briefing to ESDIS

  37. Goals • Augmented file must be readable through • NetCDF-4 API as well as HDF-EOS5 API • How? • Read info in theHDF-EOS5 part. • Transform it to conform to NetCDF-4 model. . • Append the new info. + = Annual briefing to ESDIS

  38. Past Work Review Collected and Examined different HDF-EOS5 data • Not all Aura HDF-EOS5 files use projection for storing dimension values. • For example, OMI L2G grid files store lat/lon in data fields. • TES grid files use both ways. Annual briefing to ESDIS

  39. Past Work Review Provided a customized version for HIRDLS team • To follow the netCDF4 data model, we need users to provide the information about the dimension fields. • MLS and HIRDLS data are vertical profilers. The dimension fields are Pressure and Time. • We need similar information for other instruments. Annual briefing to ESDIS

  40. Future Work • Handle other cases: OMI L2G,future HIRDLS/MLS grid • Design a general input file for insufficient information • Continue testing with NetCDF-4 snapshots • Consistency checker • If one modifies dim info in an augmented file, file becomes inconsistent. • Testing, Documentation Annual briefing to ESDIS
