An R package with WPS, Web-Client and Spark integration
Ulrich Leopold (Luxembourg Institue of Science and Technology) and Benedikt Gräler (52°North) recently presented results of the EOTSA project during the EGU2020: Sharing Geoscience Online.
This project was initiated to ease the access and analysis of data provided by the PROBA-V mission exploitation platform (MEP) at the Flemish Institute for Technology & Research (VITO). Project partners developed the toolbox according to the needs of the time series analysis community.
