Abstract :
In this paper we describe a framework of GIS-based system for automated processing of mass remote sensing and geospatial data products as a step in preparation of data for the needs of end users. In particular we employed the GDAL data model and python and GDAL Library to convert HDF5 format data into standard GIS format. We then batch processed all the data to a targeted data type using python coding. Finally we integrated all related statistics of the data into Microsoft Excel worksheet files or ASCII files use the C# programming language.
