Abstract

This tutorial is expected to deliver a comprehensive study and hands-on tutorial of how GeoSpark incorporates Spark to uphold massive-scale spatial data. We also want this tutorial to serve as an introductory course that teaches the audience the basic building blocks in a scalable spatial data management system and the important design concerns based on our previous experience. We begin our tutorial with a background introduction of the characteristics of spatial data and the history of distributed data management systems. A follow-up section presents common approaches used by the practitioners to extend Spark and introduces the vital components in a generic spatial data management system. The third section gives a hands-on live demonstration to illustrate the basic steps of performing geospatial data analytics using GeoSpark.
