The Customized Online Aggregation & Summarization Tool for Environmental Rasters (COASTER) system is being developed by Yellowstone Ecological Research Center in response to the data needs of research collaborators. The primary intent of COASTER is to greatly reduce the data storage and computational capabilities required to create customized environmental covariates. In achieving this goal COASTER effectively translates large and cumbersome datasets into user-specified information useful for parameterizing statistical models and for visualizing spatial and temporal patterns within the data. Notable features of COASTER include a conceptually simple and yet extremely flexible design, and easy to use output (i.e., results from COASTER are in a format (.tif) amenable for use in most GIS and remote sensing software packages).
