Abstract

There is a growing demand on remotely sensed and GIS data services in modern society. However, conventional WEB applications based on client/server pattern can not meet the criteria in the future . Grid computing provides a promising resolution for establishing spatial information system toward future applications. Here, a new architecture of the distributed environment for remotely sensed data processing based on the middleware technology was proposed. In addition, in order to utilize the new environment, a problem had to be algorithmically expressed as comprising a set of concurrently executing sub-problems or tasks. Experiment of the algorithm was implemented, and the results show that the new environmental can achieve high speedups for applications compared with conventional implementation.
