PIGWAD or "Planetary Interactive GIS-on-the-Web Analyzable Database," has been operational since May of 1999. It currently provides GIS database support for the research and academic planetary science communities. We are now focused on creating a Mars Exploration Rover (MER) web-based landing-site analysis page. Along with the NASA Ames Research Center's web site, the PIGWAD web server also contains mission information including engineering constraints. The marriage of these two web sites gives scientists a great resource of information to analyze for landing-site selection.
