Comparative Analysis of SpatialHadoop and GeoSpark for Geospatial Big Data Analytics

摘要

In this digitalised world where every information is stored, the data a aregrowing exponentially. It is estimated that data are doubles itself every twoyears. Geospatial data are one of the prime contributors to the big datascenario. There are numerous tools of the big data analytics. But not all thebig data analytics tools are capabilities to handle geospatial big data. In thepresent paper, it has been discussed about the recent two popular open sourcegeospatial big data analytical tools i.e. Spatial- Hadoop and GeoSpark whichcan be used for analysis and process the geospatial big data in efficientmanner. It has compared the architectural view of SpatialHadoop and GeoSpark.Through the architectural comparison, it has also summarised the merits anddemerits of these tools according the execution times and volume of the datawhich has been used.
