Book New Advances in Lunar and Related Planetary Studies

Download or read book New Advances in Lunar and Related Planetary Studies written by Bojing Zhu and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-05-14 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many facets of studies in planetary science are dependent on analyzing large volumes of in-situ and spacecraft data. Our understanding of the lunar evolution and its connection to deeper interior layers has been dramatically improved by the so-called deep space exploration missions, including NASA’s lunar reconnaissance orbiter narrow-angle camera, China’s Moon and Mar exploration program, and Chang’e series lunar relay satellite program, in coordination with Earth-based supporting observations. From Apollo 17 lunar surface operations (1972), there are many related operations including China’s lunar and deep space exploration (Chang’e-1 2007; Chang’e-2 2010; Chang’e-3 2013; Chang’e-4 2018; Chang’e-5 2020). On the 50th anniversary of the final Apollo mission to the Moon, this topic will bring together theory, numerical models, and observations capable of advancing our understanding of lunar evolution.

Book Online Maps with APIs and WebServices

Download or read book Online Maps with APIs and WebServices written by Michael P. Peterson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet has become the major form of map delivery. The current presentation of maps is based on the use of online services. This session examines developments related to online methods of map delivery, particularly Application Programmer Interfaces (APIs) and MapServices in general, including Google Maps API and similar services. Map mashups have had a major impact on how spatial information is presented. The advantage of using a major online mapping site is that the maps represent a common and recognizable representation of the world. Overlaying features on top of these maps provides a frame of reference for the map user. A particular advantage for thematic mapping is the ability to spatially reference thematic data.

Book Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology

Download or read book Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology written by Igor Florinsky and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology, Second Edition, synthesizes the knowledge on methods and applications of digital terrain analysis and geomorphometry in the context of multi-scale problems in soil science and geology. Divided into three parts, the book first examines main concepts, principles, and methods of digital terrain modeling. It then looks at methods for analysis, modeling, and mapping of spatial distribution of soil properties using digital terrain analysis, before finally considering techniques for recognition, analysis, and interpretation of topographically manifested geological features. Digital Terrain Analysis in Soil Science and Geology, Second Edition, is an updated and revised edition, providing both a theoretical and methodological basis for understanding and applying geographical modeling techniques. - Presents an integrated and unified view of digital terrain analysis in both soil science and geology - Features research on new advances in the field, including DEM analytical approximation, analytical calculation of local morphometric variables, morphometric globes, and two-dimensional generalized spectral analytical methods - Includes a rigorous description of the mathematical principles of digital terrain analysis - Provides both a theoretical and methodological basis for understanding and applying geographical modeling

Book Proceedings of the 44th Annual American Astronautical Society Guidance  Navigation  and Control Conference  2022

Download or read book Proceedings of the 44th Annual American Astronautical Society Guidance Navigation and Control Conference 2022 written by Matt Sandnas and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2024 with total page 1810 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zusammenfassung: This conference attracts GN&C specialists from across the globe. The 2022 Conference was the 44th Annual GN&C conference with more than 230 attendees from six different countries with 44 companies and 28 universities represented. The conference presented more than 100 presentations and 16 posters across 18 topics. This year, the planning committee wanted to continue a focus on networking and collaboration hoping to inspire innovation through the intersection of diverse ideas. These proceedings present the relevant topics of the day while keeping our more popular and well-attended sessions as cornerstones from year to year. Several new topics including "Autonomous Control of Multiple Vehicles" and "Results and Experiences from OSIRIS-REx" were directly influenced by advancements in our industry. In the end, the 44th Annual GN&C conference became a timely reflection of the current state of the GN&C ins the space industry. The annual American Astronautical Society Rocky Mountain Guidance, Navigation and Control (GN&C) Conference began 1977 as an informal exchange of ideas and reports of achievements among guidance and control specialists local to the Colorado area. Bud Gates, Don Parsons, and Bob Culp organized the first conference, and began the annual series of meetings the following winter. In March 1978, the First Annual Rocky Mountain Guidance and Control Conference met at Keystone, Colorado. It met there for eighteen years, moving to Breckenridge in 1996 where it has been for over 25 years

Book Review of the Restructured Research and Analysis Programs of NASA s Planetary Science Division

Download or read book Review of the Restructured Research and Analysis Programs of NASA s Planetary Science Division written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2017-06-22 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Research and Analysis (R&A) program managed by NASA's Planetary Science Division (PSD), supports a broad range of planetary science activities, including the analysis of data from past and current spacecraft; laboratory research; theoretical, modeling, and computational studies; geological and astrobiological fieldwork in planetary analog environments on Earth; geological mapping of planetary bodies; analysis of data from Earth- and space-based telescopes; and development of flight instruments and technology needed for future planetary science missions. The primary role of the PSD R&A program is to address NASA's strategic objective for planetary science and PSD's science goals. Recently, PSD reorganized the R&A program to provide better alignment with the strategic goals for planetary sciences. The major changes in the R&A program involved consolidating a number of prior program elements, many of which were organized by subdiscipline, into a smaller number of thematic core research program elements. Despite numerous efforts by PSD to communicate the rationale for the reorganization and articulate clearly the new processes, there has been significant resistance from the planetary science community and concerns in some sectors regarding the major realignment of funding priorities. Review of NASA's Planetary Science Division's Restructured Research and Analysis Programs examines the new R&A program and determines if it appropriately aligns with the agency's strategic goals, supports existing flight programs, and enables future missions. This report explores whether any specific research areas or subdisciplinary groups that are critical to NASA's strategic objectives for planetary science and PSD's science goals are not supported appropriately in the current program or have been inadvertently disenfranchised through the reorganization.
