【 摘 要 】

xGDS supports rapid scientific decision making by synchronizing the time and mapped location of observation notes, instrument data, photos, video, samples and other data. xGDS is a suite of web tools, developed at NASA Ames Research Center to support remote science operations in analog missions and prototype new ideas for planetary exploration. During operations, xGDS displays science data in real-time with geographic context, supporting key decisions (e.g. sample site selection). Post-operations, xGDS enables efficient analysis of data by correlating data products in time and on the map. xGDS has been developed in close collaboration with science teams since 2009, and used enthusiastically by upwards of 100 scientists to support scientific field research and data analysis.
