NASA POWER Project Tech Demo – Data Access Viewer Enhanced DAVe Walkthrough

NASA's POWER Data Access Viewer Enhanced (DAVe) is a web mapping application that provides enhanced capabilities to access and use NASA Earth Observation and global model data supporting renewable energy, sustainable infrastructure, and agroclimatology communities. The DAVe allows users to select community-specific parameters, units, time periods, and output formats to efficiently retrieve data from the POWER Data Archive. Key features and functionalities include: • To ensure users are getting data most relevant to their work or study area, the DAVe enables users to subset POWER’s global data offerings into user-specified regional or single-point areas. • The application provides users with the ability to visualize their selected data and parameters on an interactive, time-enabled web map before downloading. • The DAVe can produce charts and graphs for key data parameters such as thermal zones, monthly heatmaps, data anomalies, and annual cycles. • The application also allows users to create reports for their area of interest, such as a climatic design conditions report, which provides a standardized series of parameters to assist in building design by providing information relevant to heating and cooling system sizing and implementation.
