Abstract :
This paper describes the interoperable, personalized, on-demand data access and services (IPODAS) of remote sensing data provided by NASA HDF-EOS Web GIS Software Suite (NWGISS). NWGISS is a web-based, multiple OGC-standard compliant data distribution system. Currently, NWGISS consists of following components: a Web Map Server, a Web Coverage Server, a Catalog Server, a Web Coverage Client, and a Toolbox. Those components can work either independently or collaboratively. Executables of all NWGISS components are free to any users.
