1. Intro;uction
The 8irtual Supermar3et !or Remote Sensin$ %ata and Ima$es A18SB is a s.stem under development at the
,niversit. o! Te+as at 7l #aso A,T7#B %epartment o! Computer Science. This document; the so!t'are
reCuirements speci!ication ASRSB; descri/es the s.stem in su!!icient detail !or its implementation. The SRS is
divided into !our sections. Section 1 descri/es the purpose and scope o! the s.stem and a $lossar. o! terms used
in the document. Section 2 descri/es the s.stem in $eneral terms. Section 3 contains the detailed reCuirements.
The appendices provide additional in!ormation.
This section o! the SRS contains a description o! the #urpose and Intended 1udience; the Scope o! the #roduct;
1//reviations and %e!initions and an overvie' o! the document. This section o! the SRS contains a description
o! the product and !unctionalit. provided /. the product; main !eatures o! the product; a description o! each
t.pe o! user o! the s.stem; constraints on the development team; and !actors that a!!ect the reCuirements stated
in the SRS. In order to descri/e 'hat the s.stem 'ill do at a hi$h6level; use case dia$rams and scenarios are
used in this section.
1.1. (urpose an; Inten;e; "u;ience
The purpose o! the SRS is to clearl. and accuratel. de!ine the reCuirements o! the 8irtual Supermar3et !or
Remote Sensin$ %ata and Ima$es s.stem /ein$ developed. The SRS documents and descri/es all !unctions that
the !inal product should per!ormD thus; it serves as a developer re!erence !or product desi$n and implementation.
The SRS descri/es the s.stem !rom the user perspective and then $roups s.stem reCuirements into t'o sections;
/ehavioral and non6/ehavioral. <ehavioral reCuirements de!ine 'hat the s.stem does /. e+aminin$ inputs to
the s.stem; outputs !rom the s.stem; and the relationships /et'een these inputs and outputs. *on6/ehavioral
reCuirements de!ine the attri/utes o! the s.stem as it per!orms its Eo/; includin$ e!!icienc.; relia/ilit.; securit.;
maintaina/ilit.; and porta/ilit..
The intended audience o! this document is the client; ; the $uidance team; and the so!t'are development team.
The SRS is an a$reement amon$ these parties on reCuirements re$ardin$ the 8S# s.stem.
1.2. Scope of (ro;uct
Remote sensin$ is the science o! acCuirin$; processin$; and interpretin$ measurements acCuired !rom a distance
as 'ith instruments /orne on aircra!t and satellites. 4! particular concern here are data a/out 7arth. 4ur client;
#1C7S; specialiFes in the acCuisition and distri/ution o! "andsat data coverin$ the South'est ,nited States and
portions o! 0e+ico.
*umerous remote sensin$ instruments are currentl. active in or/it around the 7arth. 7ach instrument provides
datasets to the instrument teams; 'ho then ma3e the data availa/le to clients. In some cases; data acCuired /.
clients can then /e made availa/le to other users. The result o! current practices is that remote sensin$ data o!
various !orms is availa/le !rom a variet. o! data providers. 0an. data sets are availa/le online; and much o! it
is !ree o! char$e. Scientists and the $eneral pu/lic currentl. must use a variet. o! search en$ines that tend to
!avor commercial sites over non6commercial sites. #1C7S 'ould li3e to !acilitate locatin$ various remote
sensin$ data sets. %evelopin$ a centraliFed location and specialiFed search en$ine 'ill !acilitate locatin$
datasets and 'ill /e $reatl. appreciated /. the scienti!ic communit..
The 18S s.stem 'ill ena/le users to locate remote sensin$ datasets availa/le online. It 'ill maintain a list o!
data sets that are made availa/le /. a variet. o! remote sensin$ or$aniFations. 18S 'ill store; or$aniFe; search;
and displa. lin3s to commercial and non6commercial data sets that are availa/le online. The so!t'are developed
'ill provide a /ro'ser6/ased inter!ace !or users to search throu$h an inde+ o! remote sensin$ data that various
or$aniFations ma3e availa/le. %ata providers 'ill use the so!t'are to ma3e their data sets availa/le to users /.
providin$ descriptions o! the data that is availa/le; includin$ the location o! the data; ho' the data 'as
o/tained; and ho' the user can access the data. 18S 'ill allo' a user to search !or data usin$ a natural
lan$ua$e Cuer.; and it 'ill provide a list o! relevant matches and lin3s to the data. %escriptions o! the data 'ill

This section o! the SRS contains a description o! the product and !unctionalit. provided /. the product; main
!eatures o! the product; a description o! each t.pe o! user o! the s.stem; constraints on the development team;
and !actors that a!!ect the reCuirements stated in the SRS. In order to descri/e 'hat the s.stem 'ill do at a
hi$h6level ,se Case dia$rams and Scenarios are used in this section.
2.1. (ro;uct (erspecti#e
The 18S s.stem 'ill serve as a search en$ine !or remotel. sensed data and it 'ill allo' scientists and the
$eneral pu/lic to search over a vast amount o! remotel. sensed data !or sets o! in!ormation. The s.stemIs search
inter!ace 'ill allo' the user to speci!. various characteristics o! the data in order to !ind data sets that match the
$iven search criteria; e.$. spatial resolution; spectral resolution; $eo$raphical location; costs. The result o! the
Cueries 'ill /e lin3s A,R"sB to the location o! the matchin$ data. This s.stem 'ill also allo' its users to
provide data sets o! their o'n 'hich; a!ter a validation process; 'ill /e supplied to the in!ormation repositor. in
order to ma3e it availa/le to other users. This s.stem is sel!6contained ho'ever; it is not independent $iven that
its !unctionalit. relies on the data/ase that #1C7S 'ill provide; 'hich 'ill not /e a part o! the s.stem.
18S is a 'e/6/ased so!t'are s.stem that provides services !or re$istered and non6re$istered users. Re$istered
users; 3no'n as data providers; are a/le to store descriptions o! their online remote sensin$ data sets. These
data sets ma. include Gprett. picturesH; $eo6re!erenced ima$es; and /inar. data. #roviders add metadata to the
s.stem /. providin$ a lin3 to their data and a speci!ic description o! the data; includin$ location; date; data t.pe;
lon$itude; and latitude. *on6re$istered users; 3no'n as visitors; can search and /ro'se throu$h the metadata.
To maintain the securit. and inte$rit. o! the metadata; validators veri!. and data posted /. data providers
/e!ore it is availa/le to visitors.
18S is /ein$ developed !or #1C7S. The technical mission o! #1C7S is to contri/ute to *1S1Is 7arth and
Science 7nterprise /. conductin$ research in several areas o! the $eolo$ical; ph.sical and environmental
sciences. 4ther search en$ines are availa/le on the >orld >ide >e/ A>>>B to search !or remotel. sensed
data ho'everD these search en$ines are not uni!ied as a common entit.. The inter!aces !or each o! these search
en$ines var.; and the in!ormation the. contain ma. not /e as relia/le as needed !or scienti!ic purposes. The
18S so!t'are s.stem intends to mer$e all o! the most important and dependa/le remotel. sensed data sources
into one entit. that 'ill provide this in!ormation !or !ree to the $eneral pu/lic; accordin$ to #1C7S mission
statement.
2.2. *ser C$aracteristics
This section descri/es the actors o! the s.stem and $ives a description o! !eatures and characteristics that
in!luence the so!t'are s.stem. The use case model consists o! actors; use cases and relations amon$ them.
2.2.1. "ctors
This section descri/es all o! the users o! the s.stem and their di!!erent roles and $eneral !unction in it. 1n actor
is an outside entit. that interacts 'ith the proposed s.stem. >hen an actor interacts 'ith a s.stem it per!orms a
use case.
2.2.1.1. /isitor
This actor is a person 'ho comes to the s.stem to search !or remotel. sensed data. The visitor is a person 'ho
can either have a stron$ educational level or have no pro!essional /ac3$round; e.$. a #h.%. and a hi$h school
student; respectivel.. The visitor ma. per!orm t'o t.pes o! search; a simple search /. su/mittin$ a Cuer. to the
search en$ine; or an advanced search; 'here the user is $iven a set o! descriptions o! t.pe o! data to /e
searched.
2.2.1.2. (ro#i;er
1 provider is ever. entit. that 'ill provide descriptions and locations o! remotel. sensed data throu$h our
s.stem. The perspective providers include research centers and commercial or$aniFations 'hich o'n remotel.

2.2.1.3. /ali;ator
This actor is the person in char$e o! revie'in$ and validatin$ data !or the s.stem. 7ver. time a set o! data is
proposed; it 'ill /e the responsi/ilit. o! the validator to veri!. the content o! the data and validate it; so it can /e
either accepted and uploaded into the s.stem or reEected. The perspective validator is an administrative sta!!
mem/er !rom a research center.
2.2.1.4. !ata%ase
The data/ase 'ill hold relations containin$ all the in!ormation that the s.stem needs such as userIs pro!iles;
metadata !or /oth approved remotel. sensed data and unapproved remotel. sensed data and help topics.
2.3. (ro;uct Features
The main !eatures o! this so!t'are s.stem are:
The s.stem provides an inter!ace !or searchin$ !or remotel. sensed data that is availa/le on6line.
The s.stem provides an inter!ace that ena/les data providers to descri/e the data sets the. have
availa/le.
The s.stem provides an inter!ace that allo's validators to accept or reEect su/mitted metadata.
It is important to mention that the s.stem 'ill not mana$e actual pieces o! remotel. sensed data; /ut instead; it
mana$es metadata that points to the actual location o! remotel. sensed data. Fi$ure 1 contains the ,se Case
