Considerations on Geospatial Big Data

Towards Open Big Geospatial Data for geodata.gov.gr

Open data provided by the public sector constitute a significant opportunity for growth. PublicaMundi (http://publicamundi.eu) is an EU FP7-ICT project aiming to make open geospatial data easier to discover, reuse, and share by fully supporting their complete publishing lifecycle in open data catalogues. To achieve this, PublicaMundi extends and integrates leading open source software for open ...

Geospatial Big Data: Challenges and Opportunities

Architecture Considerations for Big Data Management

A network architecture is concerned with holistic view of interconnection of different nodes with each other. This refers to both physical and logical ways of interconnection of all nodes in the network. The way in which they are connected influences the strategies adopted for Big Data Management. In this present day of Internet of Things (IoT), each kind of device is required and made possible...

Research statement - Architectural Considerations for Big Data

Big data analytics are the driving force behind the current revolution in computing architectures and system designs. While a plethora of research has focused on designing the computing fabric for big data analytics, limited research has focused on building a storage system architecture to enable big data acceleration. My current research bridges this gap by designing storage systems for big da...

Disaster Risk Reduction in Agriculture through Geospatial (Big) Data Processing

Intensive farming on land represents an increased burden on the environment due to, among other reasons, the usage of agrochemicals. Precision farming can reduce the environmental burden by employing site specific crop management practices which implement advanced geospatial technologies for respecting soil heterogeneity. The objectives of this paper are to present the frontier approaches of ge...
