Use the following resources to supplement your solutions to each Space Apps challenge! Each challenge appears in one of six categories: Technology, Aeronautics, Space Station, Solar System, Earth, or Journey to Mars. Contact the challenge owners from the Space Apps challenge website for clarifications. These resources are also listed and discoverable through NASA's catalog of publicly-available datasets, APIs, and visualizations available at https://api.nasa.gov/ and https://data.nasa.gov/. Also consider searching https://code.nasa.gov/#/ and https://software.nasa.gov/advancedsearch.

###Rock-IT Space Fashion and Design

• Advanced electronics are a problem in space due to the density of the chips. The more circuitry in smaller electronic components, the greater the susceptibility to cosmic radiation. NASA is looking for “red hard” processers that aren’t affected by radiation to bring space-usable tech up to par with cool Earth tech.

  • Newsweek article "Introducing Astronaut Clothing of the Future": http://www.newsweek.com/2015/07/17/introducing-astronaut-clothing-future-349955.html

• Wearables help astronauts onboard the International Space Station monitor heart rates and breathing patterns, and collects data to investigate whether changes in heart activity are related to astronauts’ poor sleep quality. Textiles can be infused with technology to provide perspective on multiple investigations, such as respiration, body acceleration, skin temperature, and more.

  • http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/1279.html
  • http://spaceflight101.com/iss/wearable-monitoring/

• NASA is using wearables to monitor Personal CO2 on orbit. Excessive CO2 causes headaches, dizziness, and blood pressure spikes. Even with scrubbing technology on Station, pockets of CO2 can go undetected in the space environment. The Personal CO2 monitor’s an astronaut’s immediate surroundings.

###Open World Generation Using NASA Mars and Vesta Data

• Dataset Products are available online via WMTS-based APIs on api.nasa.gov
• Leverage existing Minecraft customizations such as Galacticraft or vanilla Minecraft and implement as a plugin or mod.
• View Apps using Mars and Vesta Data such as http://marstrek.jpl.nasa.gov/ or http://vestatrek.jpl.nasa.gov/

•   DEM Grayscale -Mars Orbiter Altimiter: For the heights, you might want to use "DEM Grayscale - Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter”. The data is in 8 bit grayscale.  You can apply scale and offset to find the height value. You can find the snippet here. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kqjl981WWxWZPkeopgodUFEbDePRlV7GEsNtMfeXKP8/edit?usp=sharing
  

##EARTH

If you’d like to use NASA Earth data with Google Maps, you’ll want to use the Global Imagery Browse Services (GIBS): https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/GIBS/

There is some sample code on how to use GIBS with Google Maps and other mapping libraries: https://github.com/nasa-gibs/gibs-web-examples

The data format is not always the same across all NASA Earth data products, though HDF is one of the more common formats. You can see a list of them here: https://earthdata.nasa.gov/user-resources/standards-and-references. and can see a list of data tools here: https://earthdata.nasa.gov/earth-observation-data/tools

If you’re trying to insert data values into a database, we suggest starting with Level 3 data products as they are usually gridded and available globally. See here for a description of data processing levels: http://science.nasa.gov/earth-science/earth-science-data/data-processing-levels-for-eosdis-data-products/
