A "Resource Package"-Oriented Approach for Remote Sensing Analysis Modeling — Dust Storm Monitoring Model as Example

Abstract

Now, with the development of intelligent service technology, information provisioning models are changing from simple, single-type models to complex, on-demand models as required. Remote sensing analysis modeling often requires the use of multiple data sources, computer resources, tools, and models, and couples these resources into a work°ow for global change research. Therefore, remote sensing analysis modeling research today faces a critical challenge: the registry, discovery, and allocation of modeling resources are complex, as they are heterogeneous and geographically distributed. This paper proposes a resource package-oriented approach that provides guidelines for remote sensing analysis modeling to increase model sharing and integrating. This uni¯ed wrapping approach can be used to make the management and use of existing resources becoming easy and reusable. Based on this description of construction method, di®erent remote sensing analysis resources can be combined together on-demand. We developed a web environment to compose di®erent remote sensing modeling resources as ondemand processing components, based on the existing work°ow engineering, and use a dust storm monitoring model as an example. Comparative analyses are given to further explain the applications of this hierarchical construction method in the areas of the remote sensing analysis model.

An Efficient Hierarchical Representation Approach of Remote Sensing Application Modeling Based on Distributed Environment

“…We adopt the concept of resources to describe the task [41]. ese resources primarily include data and processing resources, referred to here as "data" and "processing."…”

“…for Remote Sensing Models. e resource package is a method for describing resources, as proposed by Zou et al [41], and the model resources are encapsulated using the RDF method. A set of normative specifications was designed to describe abstract remote sensing models, including objects, relationships, operations, and rules.…”

“…Using the concept of on-demand service, the process of the remote sensing model is described by means of a resource-oriented package [41] that facilitates on-demand matching, searching, and access to distributed models. Based on the resource package model description method, this paper proposes a hierarchical representation architecture for realising simulations and descriptions of remote sensing models.…”
