What are the challenges of Geospatial big data?

The Big Data Problem
Geospatial big data is the most significant factor in the era of big data, as most data today are inherently spatial (wayfinding, maps, identification, sorting) and collected with location-aware sensors. Collecting, managing, storing, and analyzing various streams of geospatial data facilitates the development of new decision-support systems and presents unprecedented opportunities for business, science, and engineering.
Geospatial big data is incredibly challenging (“the V’s”) due to the massive data sets analyzed in the context of space and time.
Disadvantages of Traditional GIS
  • Only designed to facilitate repeatable navigation.
  • Thousands of different data sources make integration a bespoke challenge.
  • Tagging is generally done via latitude and longitude, making it unclear.
  • Tagging an attribute with a latitude and longitude, since it's never clear what area possesses the attribute or how accurate the measurement is.

    • The Solution? DGGS

    What is DGGS?

    A DGGS is a spatial reference system that uses a hierarchical tessellation of cells to partition and address the globe. It is a simple way of assigning geometric shapes to space to perform complicated mathematical calculations. Imagine a spreadsheet of uniform tiny cells that cover the entire earth.

    Each cell holds a unique “ID” that can are divided repeatedly to provide hyper granular spatial resolution storing specific scientific, qualitative, or almost any form of information.

    “Interoperability of data, speed at scale, and non reliance of high performance computing are key advantages of the BigGeo DGGS”

    The BigGeo DGGS solution accelerates business & industry-specific applications whose needs are geared towards speed, scale, and data interoperability while using off-the-shelf consumer hardware. As a result, builders can tap into API-accessible products that rapidly solve high-tech challenges that scale globally.

    Products range from 2D DGGS API’s to Volumetric 3D DGGS solutions. These novel technologies open up an immeasurable stream of new business solutions.
