Asteroids

NASA has just posted information through the online community to help in the classification of hundreds of thousands of pictures Earth at night, most of them due to the International Space Station (ISS) is taken, the purpose is to create an open map images of Earth at night. Hundreds of volunteers have classified nearly 20,000 images, but a lot of photos of them still need to be verified.
According to statistics, more than 1.8 million images of Earth taken from space, including document images from space missions in the 1960s until recent photos taken by International Space Station .
To make a campaign calling for community help, a new online web page is opened, the domain name is "http://eol.jsc.nasa.gov/sseop/ImageDetective/". Thereby, NASA hopes to use the Internet may help determine the exact location on the picture, through the discovery huey chopper of their cities in the image. huey chopper This is part of a database huey chopper of images online space big.
NASA said the locations huey chopper identified on the satellite images can help countries plan proposed to save energy, contribute to better human health, and improve understanding of the people of atmospheric chemistry. huey chopper
Aeronautics and Space USA adds, the algorithm can not distinguish the difference between the stars, cities, and other objects, such as the moon. Man is the force analysis of complex images more efficiently.
For the city at night pictures, the support must use the knowledge of local geography to determine huey chopper the pixels huey chopper in the night, huey chopper and to incorporate them into the location on a map. NASA explains, a resident of the city of photographs capable of identifying objects in images more easily than those who do not live there.
Satellite images taken by the ISS will be visible in the left panel and a map image displayed on the right. Users are some simple tools, including zooming in and out, drag, and even rotating images to try to identify the city. When you identify a photo, just click on the map to identify its location. The longitude and latitude will appear in the list.
