MyGeoHub Geospatial Gateway

MyGeoHub is a science gateway for
researchers working with geospatial data. Based
on the HUBzero cyberinfrastructure framework, it
provides general-purpose software modules
enabling geospatial data management, processing
and visualization. Termed “GABBs” (Geospatial
Data Analysis Building Blocks), these modules can
be leveraged to build geospatial data driven tools
with minimal programming and construct dynamic
workflows chaining both local and remote tools
and data sources. We will present examples of
such end-to-end workflows demonstrating the
underlying software building blocks that have also
found use beyond the MyGeoHub gateway in other
science domains.

MyGeoHub是面向地理空间数据研究人员的科学网关。该平台基于HUBzero网络基础设施框架开发，提供通用软件模块，可支持地理空间数据的管理、处理与可视化。这些模块被命名为“GABBs（Geospatial Data Analysis Building Blocks，地理空间数据分析构建模块）”，研究人员可借助它们在仅需少量编程的前提下构建地理空间数据驱动型工具，并搭建串联本地与远程工具及数据源的动态工作流。我们将展示此类端到端工作流的实例，用以阐释其底层软件构建模块，这些模块同样已在MyGeoHub网关之外的其他科学领域得到应用。
