Session VI: Ground, Software and Tools
Location
Utah State University, Logan, UT
Abstract
We are developing of a set of turn-key science data services for smallsat data management, processing, and hosting. Using cloud computing resources and existing infrastructure, we can rapidly deploy a modular data system for a mission or project. A basic system includes reliable, secure data storage, an API for fast data access worldwide, and a lightweight website with information about the mission and data API documentation. Optional add-ons include the ability to deploy science processing software using Docker containers, interactive web-based data displays, and archive deliveries to NASA or other archive facilities. The use of AWS CloudFormation templates to build new systems makes deployment and support straightforward and cost-efficient, and provides a consistent interface for both mission teams and science data users.
