Welcome
to distributed Voyager (dVoy), a spatio-temporal environmental data tool based
on Web standards. dVoy has three major components: data access, navigation and
display which interact following the model-view-controller (MVC) paradigm. The
data access (model) layer offers a homogeneous, read-only access mechanism to a
changing collection of heterogeneous, autonomous and distributed information
sources. The Voyager data access uses a
global multidimensional schema consisting of spatial, temporal, parameter and
other dimensions common to environmental data.
This schema enables the development and implementation of web-based
tools for exploring and analyzing environmental data.
dVoy is currently in its prototype stage but is available for preview and preliminary testing:
