Abstract
Visualization will be vital to the success of the NASA EOS Mission to Planet Earth (MTPE), which will gather, generate, and distribute an unprecedented volume of data for the purpose of global change research and environmental policy decisions. The paper focuses on the challenges and opportunities for visualization with regard to the Mission to Planet Earth. Directions presently being taken within NASA to fund and assist development of new tools are also discussed
