[ESIP-AQ] Desktop NO2 Data Explorer available for alpha testing

[Bruce Caron]

Hello Cluster:

Let me know if you want to check out the latest OMI NO2 data explorer:

LATEST VERSION AVAILABLE: Alpha 007. November 9 2007
We are looking for Alpha Testers: Send me an email (bruce at nmri.org)  
with your snail mail address, and we will mail you one. thanks

Goal: To gather existing NO2 data archives into a single DVD-based  
data explorer software product so that scientists, data providers,  
application developers, and decision makers can explore not only the  
existing data corpus (or a representative sample) but also the  
potential use cases for data analysis by decision makers. NOTE: this  
is not a final product for use by decision makers, but a prototype  
that helps move the conversation along among the various stakeholders  
in the NO2 data system.
Technology: DIAL will combine run-time IDL data analysis and  
visualization tools with Adobe Director GUI authoring to create the  
prototype application.
Specifications:
Alpha 007  (MAC and PC) includes:
ALL available OMI NO2 daily total column and tropospherical data for  
lower 48 state US. (up to October 30, 2007) [Source: GSFC Data Pool/ 
AURA science team]
VIEWER: View and subset single dates or ranges of dates
ANIMATE: Choose the overall date range and animate through your choice  
of days, weeks, etc.
GRAPH: Look at changes in the average NO2 value for any part of the US  
over any date range
COMPARE: compare a date or range for any part of the US with monthly,  
seasonal, annual, or total NO2 values across the entire OMI data set.  
Find anomalies
Tell us which new feature would be best for your work!
Please feel free to contribute your ideas! Thanks! (Bruce, Marty,  
Hajime and the NO2 DDEP project team...) Email: bruce at nmri.org
