Abstract
Systems, methods, and software described herein manage data from spaceborne and airborne nodes. In one implementation, a control system may obtain sensor data from sensors of spaceborne or airborne nodes. Once obtained, the control system may process the sensor data to determine metadata associated with the sensor data. Once processed, the sensor data may be stored in one or more data stores, such that applications may access the data based at least in part on the metadata.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- obtaining sensor data from sensors included in a plurality of physical nodes, wherein the sensor data is obtained to service first requested sensor data for a first application;
- generating first metadata for the sensor data in accordance with a unified storage namespace and based at least on one or more factors comprising physical locations associated with the plurality of physical nodes and times associated with the capture of the sensor data;
- based at least on the first metadata, selecting storage locations for storage of the sensor data;
- based at least on receipt of second metadata employing the unified storage namespace and included with a request for second requested sensor data for a second application, determining one or more of the storage locations having a stored portion of the sensor data associated with the second requested sensor data;
- and
- providing the stored portion of the sensor data from the one or more of the storage locations to the second application to support the request for the second requested sensor data.
3 more elements
A computing apparatus comprising:
- one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media;
- a processing system operatively coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media that, when executed by the processing system, direct the processing system to:
- obtain sensor data from sensors included in a plurality of physical nodes, wherein the sensor data is obtained to service first requested sensor data for a first application;
- generate first metadata for the sensor data in accordance with a unified storage namespace and based at least on one or more factors comprising physical locations associated with the plurality of physical nodes and times associated with the capture of the sensor data;
- based at least on the first metadata, selecting storage locations for storage of the sensor data;
- based at least on receipt of second metadata employing the unified storage namespace and included with a request for second requested sensor data for a second application, identify one or more of the storage locations having a stored portion of the sensor data associated with the second requested sensor data;
- and
- provide the stored portion of the sensor data from the one or more of the storage locations to the second application to support the request for the second requested sensor data.

- based at least on the first metadata, selecting storage locations for storage of the sensor data;
- obtaining a request for second requested sensor data from a second application;
- identifying a portion of the sensor data stored in the storage locations associated with the request for second requested sensor data based on second metadata included with the request, wherein the second metadata employs the unified storage namespace and;
- and
- providing the portion of the sensor data from the one or more of the storage locations to the second application to support the request.
