I am a grant writer with some experience making GIS maps (2 classes), but that experience was over 10 years ago. I am working on a NASA SBIR Ignite grant, and I need to know if what I am proposing is doable in Phase 1 of an SBIR project (<6 mo).
I need to answer this question: Can TEMPO data be incorporated easily into a GIS map? Can I get 1-hour slices of time over the whole US?
I want to be able to lay this TEMPO data over other maps containing demographic data to see where the worst hourly pollution overlaps with certain demographic traits. I would also like the entire US TEMPO/demographic map to be able to refresh with the new data as needed.
Could someone please tell me if this can be done?
Is it easy enough for someone with some GIS knowledge, but not extensive knowledge to do? Or would this require an expert to accomplish?
I would appreciate it if someone could weigh in on this soon. The SBIR is due July 30, 2024.
Thanks!

Re: "How to" for incorporating TEMPO data into GIS Map
Hello, thank you for your question regarding using TEMPO data in GIS applications. TEMPO Level 3 gridded products are hourly data. Currently, we have an image service for TEMPO gridded L3 NO2 data; this service can be accessed here (https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=6a1bdd0c076d499da69e867732ed2ab7) or through the ESRI Living Atlas (https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/home/) and can be directly imported into a GIS map application (it does not need to be an ESRI/ArcGIS map). We are working on additional image services for other TEMPO products in the future. In addition, users can access tiled TEMPO images through the GIBS/Worldview service (directions here: https://nasa-gibs.github.io/gibs-api-docs/gis-usage/). The ArcGIS image service has the data behind the imagery, meaning users can still conduct computational analyses on the data. The GIBS/Worldview imagery are meant for quick visual analyses. Users can also create their own service to pull in TEMPO data into a GIS application.
