Complete View from ISS

Complete View from ISS

Our goal is to build an immersive view from the ISS in any direction, nadir, limb-ward and star-ward, as the views are available. We want to create a mechanism to allow organizing/tagging/crowdsourcing of information that would improve the usability of the imagery for science and educational projects.

  1. Project  goals   •  Organize  high  volume  of  imagery  and

      metadata  for  easy  search     •  Enable  crowdsourcing  of  specific  data  points   •  Use  the  imagery  database  to  sKtch  a   “complete  view”  in  any  direcKon  from  the  ISS   •  Make  it  beauKful  and  easy  to  use  
  2. Metadata  per  image   •  Mission   •  Lens,  roll

     and  frame   •  Date,  Kme   •  Earth  limb  reference     •  Nadir  laKtude,  longitude,  and  alKtude   •  Angle  of  elevaKon   •  Geographic  name  and  feature  
  3. Crowdmapping  FuncKons   •  Manually  determine  center  longitude  of  image

      •  Manually  determine  center  laKtude  of  image   •  Tilt  angle  of  photo   •  Percentage  of  photo  covered  in  clouds   •  IdenKficaKon  of  unusual  features  
  4. Sample  Data  Set   •  30+  high  quality  raw  images

        •  Example  reference  data  for  tesKng   •  Gateway  for  Astronaut  Imagery  of  Earth
