Abstract

NASA's ITS_LIVE project delivers information on global glacier dynamics and provides historical context for climate change with a record of how every glacier in the world has evolved over decades of satellite observation. To handle petabytes of data in the satellite archives and a constant influx of new observations, the project has adopted a cloud-native approach that is scalable, performant, user friendly, and embraces transparent and collaborative code development. As every discipline of Earth science is being transformed by a new era of remote sensing and cloud computing, ITS_LIVE offers a progressive approach to maximizing scientific advancements through open science.

ITS_LIVE：从太空监测冰川的云原生方法

美国国家航空航天局（NASA）的ITS_LIVE项目提供有关全球冰川动态的信息，并通过记录全球每条冰川在数十年卫星观测中的演变过程，为气候变化提供历史背景。为了处理卫星档案中的 PB 级数据和不断涌入的新观测数据，该项目采用了一种云原生方法，这种方法具有可扩展性、高性能和用户友好性，并支持透明和协作式代码开发。遥感和云计算的新时代正在改变地球科学的每一门学科，ITS_LIVE 提供了一种循序渐进的方法，通过开放科学最大限度地推动科学进步。

期刊介绍： Physics, medicine, astronomy -- these and other hard sciences share a common need for efficient algorithms, system software, and computer architecture to address large computational problems. And yet, useful advances in computational techniques that could benefit many researchers are rarely shared. To meet that need, Computing in Science & Engineering presents scientific and computational contributions in a clear and accessible format. The computational and data-centric problems faced by scientists and engineers transcend disciplines. There is a need to share knowledge of algorithms, software, and architectures, and to transmit lessons-learned to a broad scientific audience. CiSE is a cross-disciplinary, international publication that meets this need by presenting contributions of high interest and educational value from a variety of fields, including—but not limited to—physics, biology, chemistry, and astronomy. CiSE emphasizes innovative applications in advanced computing, simulation, and analytics, among other cutting-edge techniques. CiSE publishes peer-reviewed research articles, and also runs departments spanning news and analyses, topical reviews, tutorials, case studies, and more.
