ACT-REACT™ (Rapid Environmental Assessment Composition Tools) is a cutting-edge analytic and fusion center workbench for geospatial analysis and decision support that can drastically enhance productivity. Key components include:
- Network Centric Geospatial Data Access -- easy access to multiple local and
remote data sets, servers and formats is combined with
powerful data transformation features and the ability
for users to perform coincidental data analysis.
Access to numerous data formats through the open
source Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL) is
included.
- Geospatial Analytic Environment – a powerful multi-layer analysis and fine
grain cartographic viewer capability is supported by
the comprehensive MSHELL™ scripting language and its
robust function library.
- Results Publishing – users
can work with a large array of output format options
and alert and report capabilities.
- Work Flow – Users can
easily create and save simple or complex work flows
that enable multi-layered data analysis and
visualization, virtual product generation, conditional
alerting and publishing. The work-flow engine provides
access to a robust function library and numerous data
sources (e.g., FTP, WWW, OGC servers, OPeNDAP,
WIPE™/PIPE™).
- Integration –
Collaboration and reuse is enhanced by enabling users
to easily publish data and results to WIPE™/PIPE™ and
other servers. Work flows created and tested in
ACT-REACT™ can also be run on WIPE™/PIPE™ servers or
shared with other ACT-REACT™ nodes.
- MSHELL™ – is the core processing
engine powering ACT-REACT™.
Note: Users interested in simple
web based access to map related products can
consider using the
ACT-REACT™-QuickMap
tool
which works with the key standard web browsers.
Key Benefits
- With easy access to large
volumes of network and local data, users can employ
coincidental data analysis to quickly determine the
best information to work with.
- Researchers are able to focus
on analytics rather than time consuming data location,
interrogation, scrubbing and testing tasks.
- ACT-REACT™ significantly
reduces the time required to generate products and new
insights from geospatial data. The analytic
environment enables researchers to leverage a large
library of pre defined and user-defined functions to
one or many geospatial datasets (layers) and rapidly
render results in a fine grain cartographic viewer.
- The work-flow, development
environment, scripting language and script library
enables automation of key analytic, publishing and
alerting tasks and enables researchers to reuse
existing code, scripts and functions.
- Integration with WIPE™ and PIPE™ enables users to
quickly locate critical geospatial datasets and easily
share findings and results with the entire scientific
community.
- ACT's strong commitment to
industry standards and to developing extensible
products enables users to maximize current and future
investments.
- ACT’s MSHELL™ architecture enables researchers to develop and test complex automation in ACT-REACT™ and port them to WIPE™/PIPE™ servers for remote execution. The unique flexibility of the ACT architecture is unmatched in the industry.

System Requirements
- ACT-REACT™ runs on
the Windows, Linux, Mac OS X platforms.
- 100 Megabytes of
available disk space.
- Minimum of 1 GB of RAM
-- more memory will enable the software to
handle larger images.
- Internet connection for
network centric data access.
- High resolution video graphics adapter card -- image resolution and the number of brightness levels (gray levels) displayed depend on the video graphics card and monitor used.
