Reasons and benefits of using JAXA Supercomputer System
JAXA is developing data disclosure to expand the use of earth observation satellite data.
As part of this, JAXA needs to process a large amount of data for the entire observation period of ALOS-2 / PALSAR-2, and quickly release user-friendly image data.
To achieve this, JSS2 processing was optimal, so we used it.(Up to 100 parallel processing)
Achievements of the Year
This year, the processing of PLASAR-2 data with JSS3 is as follows:
L1.1:23618 scenes
L2.2:21242 scenes
Total: 44860 scenes
Data that has been archived or processed this year has been provided to other system users.
1)Ask the user institution to obtain a JSS-ID and download it from JSS (obtained by the user)
Acquisition of PALSAR-2 ScanSAR L1.1 by NASA-ASF
2)Transmission via server (put from JAXA)
Asia region L2.2 transmission via Chofu transmission relay server to Sakura Internet/Tellus
L2.2 transmission in Asia, Africa, and Central and South America via Chofu transmission relay server to GEE
3)Transferred to G-Portal server via data transmission server during order processing on G-Portal (obtained by G-Porta user)
PALSAR-2 L1.1 (11345 scenes), L2.2 (1949 scenes) by the end of February 2024
4)From J-SPACE to ALOS-4/EICS (subsystem)
PALSAR-2 L0 data
In addition, for program verification, we replaced MDPS on JSS3 and conducted a test process.
