Abstract :
The University of Pittsburgh-NASA Educator Resource Center collaboration for imaging and visualization has developed a website from general guidelines suggested in visualization of space data. It is an Internet website supporting an open Digital Object Observatory and Repository, (OpenDOOR) (www.pitt.edu/~nasa/opendoor/openDOOR.html). The author describes a website displaying images, providing lessons, abstracts of technical reports, and concept papers, and eventually involving sharing of data in real time, control of instruments, and tools allowing students to work together over a wide area network
