TERRAFLY: A High-Performance Web-based Digital Library System for Spatial Data Access.
Naphtali David Rishe · 2001
This paper describes a high performance web-based digital library system, called TerraFly, for spatial data access. This system utilizes a database engine, web technology, dynamic mosaicking of digital images, and a multithread server design developed by our group at the NASA Regional Application Center (NASA RAC) in the High Performance Database Research Center (HPDRC) at Florida International University (FIU). We will demonstrate that this TerraFly system can manage a huge amount of spatial data and provide advanced functionalities.
