The article describes a unique scientific installation Vega-Science, which is designed to support operations with data from ultra-large distributed archives of the IKI-Monitoring center (http://ckp.geosmis.ru/) for the collective use of systems for archiving, processing and analyzing satellite data. The system was created in 2012, and currently more than one hundred different scientific and educational organizations are its users. At the same time, it has been used to implement about 80 different Russian and international projects, the results of which have resulted in more than 500 publications. The article considers the relevance of the task of providing access to super large distributed archives of satellite data on the basis of a new approach, providing users with opportunities for interactive analysis and data processing on the basis of the centralized computing resources of the IKI-Monitoring center. It also describes the general architecture of the Vega-Science system. Special attention is paid to the description of new technologies for working with satellite data, the development of which was largely stimulated by scientific and applied projects carried out using the capabilities of the center. Then, the basic capabilities of the Vega-Science system are briefly described, with a special emphasis on interactive tools for data analysis and processing and examples of their use. A separate chapter is devoted to the experience of using the Vega-Science system in solving various scientific and applied problems. In conclusion of this work, the prospects of Vega-Science development are discussed, and the intermediate results of its use over the past 10 years are summarized.
Keywords: Earth remote sensing, satellite data, information system, collaborative system, very large data arrays, satellite data archives, access to satellite data
