Initially, scientists assessed the probability of it colliding with Earth on December 22, 2032 at 0.28%. Although this risk has now decreased, research institutions in various countries continue to strengthen monitoring and response. In this situation, GISBox, a GIS data tile processing software, plays an important role in asteroid impact research and disaster management. GISBox provides precise technical support to scientists, government agencies, and rescue teams by efficiently processing large-scale spatial data, optimizing map loading speed, and assisting in emergency response. 1. Efficient processing of large-scale s...
