Crunching Data In GeoServer: Mastering Rendering Transformations, WPS Process...GeoSolutions
This presentation will provide the attendee with an introduction to data processing in GeoServer by means of WPS, rendering transformations and SQL views, describing real applications and how these facilities were used in them.
We'll start with the basic WPS capabilities, showing how to build processing request based on existing processes and how to build new processes leveraging scripting languages, and introducing unique GeoServer integration features, showing how processing can seamlessly integrate directly in the GeoServer data sources and complement existing services.
We'll also discuss how to integrate on the fly processing in WMS requests, achieving high performance data displays without having to pre-process the data in advance, and allowing the caller to interactively choose processing parameters.
While the above shows how to make GeoServer perform the work, the processing abilities of spatial databases should not be forgotten, so we’ll show how certain classes of processing can be achieved directly in the database.
At the end the attendee will be able to easily issue WPS requests both for Vectors and Rasters to GeoServer through the WPS Demo Builder, enrich SLDs with on-the-fly rendering transformations and play with SQL views in order to create dynamic layers.

GeoServer in Production: we do it, here is how!GeoSolutions
The presentation will describe how to setup a production system based on GeoServer from the points of view of performance, availability and security. The suggestions will start covering how a single node GeoServer should be prepared for internet usage, tuning logging, connection pools, security, data and JVM preparation, keeping disk, memory and CPU usage in check within the limits of the available resources. We’ll then move to tools used to monitor the production instances, ranging from probes to request auditing and watch-dogs. Finally the presentation will cover setting up a cluster of server and the strategies for keeping them in synch, from the traditional multi-tier setup (testing vs production) to the systems that need to keep an ever evolving catalog of layers constantly on-line and in synch.

Performance and Application of GIS and Big Data ETL Processes Using FMESafe Software
This presentation will describe the process and results of a project, which was conducted as a graduate-level capstone project for Johns Hopkins University, that utilized both FME Desktop and FME Cloud to manipulate approximately one terabyte of Landsat imagery. The purpose of the project was to expose the advantages and disadvantages of using local resources, cloud technology, and Big Data Software to view, process, and manipulate large amounts of geospatial data. This was executed by designing, testing, and analyzing various configurations of development and production environments, ranging from entirely on-premises to entirely in the cloud. The control process was developed in FME Workbench that reads and processes single-band Landsat imagery and metadata text files and outputs composite images using 11 common band combinations. Through a series of case studies, three main variables were examined: (1) location of and method of accessing source data, (2) location of system processing – locally verses in the cloud, and (3) file format and target destination of the output data. The successfulness of each case study was determined through analyzing a common set of success criteria, which includes: Total Processing Time, Ease of Setup, Cost, Ease of Viewing and Querying Results, Local System Requirements, and Network Requirements.

Accumulo Summit 2016: GeoMesa: Using Accumulo for Optimized Spatio-Temporal P...Accumulo Summit
LocationTech GeoMesa is a project that builds on open-source, distributed databases like Accumulo, HBase, and Cassandra to scale up indexing, querying, and analyzing billions of spatio-temporal data points. GeoMesa uses space-filling curves to index multi-dimensional data in Accumulo, and we'll discuss recent improvements for non-point geometries. Over the two and a half years GeoMesa has been an open-source project, GeoMesa's Accumulo schemas have evolved and our team has had a chance to work through creating and optimizing custom Accumulo iterators. These custom iterators allow for better query performance and interesting aggregations. GeoMesa provides support for distributed processing in Spark via MapReduce input and output formats that extend their Accumulo counterparts. We will discuss the performance benefit gained by reducing the number of default map/Spark tasks created for complex query patterns. The talk will conclude with updates about GeoMesa's integration with Jupyter notebook and improvements to GeoMesa's Spark integration.

Giving MongoDB a Way to Play with the GIS CommunityMongoDB
The Geographic Information System (GIS), industry is booming, especially with the continued reliance on online maps and the rise of location-aware mobile devices. GIS tech can be one of the key players in the mobile internet, big data, and the internet of things, and is an essential tool for the next generation of the global IT industry.
Yet, the GIS community is not prepared. With all the data available, GIS experts lack an off-the-shelf solutions to manage the growing volume of spatial data. Relational spatial databases (RSDB) were the leader in this field for decades, but RSDBs have failed to innovate to handle massive volumes of data coming in at high velocity.
Fortunately, MongoDB a useful tool for this challenge, but needs some tooling to create a connector to the GIS tech ecosystem. In order to bridge the gap, we built a pipeline to comply with the architecture of the Geospatial Data Abstraction Library (GDAL), so that MongoDB can work with most of popular GIS tools such as OpenLayers, Mapserver, GeoServer, QGIS, ArcGIS and others with ease. In this talk, I'll go through this pipeline tool and showcase some examples of how you can use this in your next application.
JTS is a geometry library providing a Java implementation of the OGC Simple Features Specification. The code has been translated into a half-dozen languages including C++ (GEOS), .NET (NTS), and Javascript (JSTS).
As a Geometry library the foundation of JTS is the familiar point, line and polygon data structures. The true power of the library is the algorithms that drive our open source GIS industry. These JTS algorithms have been battle hardened with 18 years of real world use offering a balance between performance, computational stability that spells trust.
This talk covers new developments in the JTS library, focusing on performance improvements, and new features. We will also get an update from the development team, their experience at LocationTech, and efforts towards Java 18.9 compatibility.
We also look at what is next for JTS with plans for the future and a few wild ideas that inspire us to continue.
Geographica: A Benchmark for Geospatial RDF StoresKostis Kyzirakos
Geospatial extensions of SPARQL like GeoSPARQL and stSPARQL have recently been defined and corresponding geospatial RDF stores have been implemented. However, there is no widely used benchmark for evaluating geospatial RDF stores which takes into account recent advances to the state of the art in this area. In this paper, we develop a benchmark, called Geographica, which uses both real-world and synthetic data to test the offered functionality and the performance of some prominent geospatial RDF stores.
Hardware Implementations of RS Decoding Algorithm for Multi-Gb/s Communicatio...RSIS International
In this paper, we have designed the VLSI hardware for a novel RS decoding algorithm suitable for Multi-Gb/s Communication Systems. Through this paper we show that the performance benefit of the algorithm is truly witnessed when implemented in hardware thus avoiding the extra processing time of Fetch-Decode-Execute cycle of traditional microprocessor based computing systems. The new algorithm with less time complexity combined with its application specific hardware implementation makes it suitable for high speed real-time systems with hard timing constraints. The design is implemented as a digital hardware using VHDL

16. These three solutions are integrated
in PostGIS
- Geometry types for Points, LineStrings, Polygons, MultiPoints, MultiLineStrings, MultipPolygons and
GeometryCollections.
- Spatial predicates for determining the interactions of geometries using the 3x3 DE-9IM (provided by the GEOS
software library).
- Spatial operators for determining geospatial measurements like area, distance, length and perimeter.
- Spatial operators for determining geospatial set operations, like union, difference, symmetric difference and
buffers (provided by GEOS).
- R-tree-over-GiST (Generalized Search Tree) spatial indexes for high speed spatial querying.
- Index selectivity support, to provide high performance query plans for mixed spatial/non-spatial queries.
- For raster data, PostGIS WKT Raster (now integrated into PostGIS 2.0+ and renamed PostGIS Raster)
- The PostGIS implementation is based on "light-weight" geometries and indexes optimized to reduce disk and
memory footprint. Using light-weight geometries helps servers increase the amount of data migrated up from
physical disk storage into RAM, improving query performance substantially.
- PostGIS is registered as "implements the specified standard" for "Simple Features for SQL" by the OGC.[2]
PostGIS has not been certified as compliant by the OGC. For the OGC's definition of compliant, see What does
"Compliant" mean?.
