Spatial Data Mining: A Perspective of Big Data

In this paper, spatial big data mining is presented under the characteristics of geomatics and big data, for it is playing a primary role in addressing social, economic, and environmental issues of pressing importance.

Data-driven geography

The context for geographic research has shifted from a data-scarce to a data-rich environment, in which the most fundamental changes are not just the volume of data, but the variety and the velocity…

Spatial big data: Case studies on volume, velocity, and variety

This chapter discusses Spatial Big Data through case-studies on real-world datasets that feature one or more of the 3 “V’s”: volume, Velocity, and Variety, which demonstrate both variety in input and output.

Remote sensing big data computing: Challenges and opportunities

AN OPEN SOURCE GEOVISUAL ANALYTICS TOOLBOX FOR MULTIVARIATE SPATIO-TEMPORAL DATA IN ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE MODELLING

It is hypothesize that the addition of 3D terrain visualisations along with appropriate data plots and two-dimensional views can help improve the analysts’ ability to interpret the spatial relevance better and indicate that analysts consider the linked views to be potentially very beneficial and they appreciate seeing the data in its spatial context.

Visualisation Tools for Understanding Big Data

The majority of big datasets are most representative of urban populations and so have much to offer wide-ranging studies of urban complexity and increasingly, they are also frequently temporal, thus offering the potential for the analysis of ows on an unprecedented scale.

A task analysis approach to the visualization of geographic data

The conclusions drawn from the research indicate that visualization techniques can indeed be of assistance to geographers but that the functions of generic SVSs must be tailored and enhanced, as indicated by the requirements list, for their full value to be realized.

How Good is Volunteered Geographical Information? A Comparative Study of OpenStreetMap and Ordnance Survey Datasets

Analysis of the quality of OpenStreetMap information focuses on London and England, since OSM started in London in August 2004 and therefore the study of these geographies provides the best understanding of the achievements and difficulties of VGI.
