Leveraging XSEDE HPC resources to address computational challenges with high-resolution topography data

Authors Info & Claims
Published:13 July 2014Publication History

ABSTRACT

Leveraging service-oriented architectures and taking advantage of the high-performance compute resources provided by XSEDE, we have developed standards-based web services to address the challenges associated with processing large volumes of high resolution topography data. These web services make results from community software packages and other cyberinfrastructure-based applications available to the wider earth sciences community via the OpenTopography Facility and the CyberGIS Gateway.
