Round 1

Reviewer 1 Report

The paper is about designing a framework for sensitivity analysis of the raster data set, with a particular focus on scalability in terms of the amount of data that it can handle.

The paper is well-written, technically sound, and well-structured. The only clarification, maybe, is: how this service is available to other researchers. It will be nice if the authors provide a plan of the deployment and access.

Dear Reviewer,

Thank you for evaluating our manuscript.

Reviewer 3 Report

The present manuscript is dedicated to cloud-based spatially explicit uncertainty and sensitivity analysis. A new framework is presented that was developed by researchers from different renowned universities. In my opinion, this paper should definitely be published, as it presents general thoughts on establishing cloud-based approaches to the fields of uncertainty and sensitivity analysis. Before final acceptance, authors should strengthen their discussion chapter. The discussion rather reads like a summary, and there are only a few connections made with current state-of-the-art literature. The author teams should expand the discussion and make clear the innovation, compared to other current projects.

Round 2

Reviewer 3 Report

The author team prepared a revised manuscript version. This new version considers the aspects mentioned in review round no. 1. I was a bit surprised that the response letter only points to the changes but does not discuss the ideas behind the changes in detail. In total, I would recommend this manuscript for publication in this impact journal.
