GEOSPATIAL SERVICES FRAMEWORK (GSF)ONE PLATFORM FOR YOUR GEOSPATIAL INTELLIGENCE

With its Geospatial Services Framework (GSF), Harris Geospatial Solutions can help organizations of any size deploy analytics to enable better decisions through real-time access to geospatial intelligence (GEOINT). When GSF is enabled with ENVI analytics, advanced GEOINT applications can be built to scale according to an organizations need. These applications can be used by any level of user on any device.

ONE PLATFORM FOR YOUR GEOSPATIAL INTELLIGENCE

OVERVIEW

GSF provides REST-based geospatial data processing and analytic server components that can operate in either a standalone environment or in conjunction with another server environment. With flexible, modular deployment in a public or a private cloud (Amazon, Google, Microsoft, etc.) GSF scales up or down to meet processing demands, data sizes and throughput requirements.

GSF includes a core set of components, such as a message broker and application server, and follows an event processing architectural approach so it provides very low-latency geospatial analytics. GSF communicates with various processing and analytics’ “engines”, such as ENVI and IDL engines, that act on a data stream to provide real-time access to GEOINT.

GSF employs a module stack that can be integrated into your existing environment and extended to accommodate multiple engines. By implementing a JavaScript module, available tasks are defined and mapped to the appropriate engine for execution.

GSF can run scalable ENVI analytics on any data source from SAR time series to Geiger-mode LiDAR to hyperspectral data while also integrating with vector based GIS software such as Esri ArcPro and ArcServer.

INTEGRATION WITH ESRI

ArcGIS® FOR DESKTOP ArcGIS users can integrate ENVI analytics as a Geoprocessing Tool (GPTool)

ArcGIS® SERVER ENVI analytics can be published as Geoprocessing Service (GPService) on ArcGIS Server

ArcGIS® ONLINE Web user interfaces can be developed using JavaScript API for ArcGIS to run ENVI analytics

GSF is built on Node.js, a JavaScript runtime built on Chrome’s V8 JavaScript engine. It uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient. That is important because it is a powerful, scalable backend web application that is written in the same language that almost every website uses.

NUTS AND BOLTS OF GSF

ASYNCHRONOUS I/O Because it is built on Node.js, GSF enjoys asynchronous I/O. In addition to fast JavaScript execution, the real magic behind Node.js is called the Event Loop. To scale to large volumes of clients, all I/O intensive operations in Node.js are performed asynchronously.

JAVASCRIPT Node.js is Javascript, so the same language can be used on the backend and frontend. This breaks down the boundaries between front- and back-end development, decreasing the time development time and making it easier to deploy and integrate with other things.

COMMUNITY DRIVEN IGSF includes a core set of components that can be extended through npm, a thriving open source community and the world’s largest ecosystem of open source libraries in the world.

Route MapperAllows queues to be defined for specific tasks, jobs and workflows like a high performance route for GPU enabled processing.

Workspace ManagerCreates and maintains all workspace files for each job which can be distributed across local, shared and cloud enabled workspaces.

Engines

ParameterMapper

Job ManagerEach job references task(s) with required parameters and our job manager submits jobs for processing. Can even be updated to use your job manager.

JobManager

EnginesWrap whatever API

the engine provides by implementing a JavaScript module that defines tasks and maps them to engine

execution.

Parameter Mapper Maps resources and

translates input and output values to appropriate

representations such as Amazon S3, GeoServer WCS

and ENVI data sources.

Request HandlerImplements REST-based API which provides HTTP

endpoints for initiating jobs, retrieving status and

accessing resources.
