This paper introduces GeoSpark an in-memory cluster computing framework for processing large-scale spatial data. GeoSpark consists of three layers: Apache Spark Layer, Spatial RDD Layer and Spatial Query Processing Layer. Apache Spark Layer provides …
The paper presents the details of designing and developing GEOSPARK, which extends the core engine of Apache Spark and SparkSQL to support spatial data types, indexes, and geometrical operations at scale. The paper also gives a detailed analysis of …
Data Visualization allows users to summarize, analyze and reason about data. A map visualization tool frst loads the designated geospatial data, processes the data and then applies the map visualization efect. Guaranteeing detailed and accurate …
The paper presents Babylon a large-scale Geospatial Visual analytics (GeoViz) system that performs the spatial data preparation and map visualization phases in the same distributed cluster.
The paper demonstrates Hippo a lightweight database indexing scheme that significantly reduces the storage and maintenance overhead without compromising much on the query execution performance. Hippo stores disk page ranges instead of tuple pointers …
GeoSparkViz is a large-scale geospatial map visualization framework. GeoSparkViz extends Apache Spark to provide native support for general cartographic design.
