Learning Outcomes

  1. Identify fundamental features of spatial and spatio-temporal big data
  2. Identify fundamental features of spatioto-temporal data streams
  3. Design and implement spatial and spatio-temporal data types in object-functional programming language and distributed data flow platforms
  4. Develop simple algorithms for big spatio-temporal data management
  5. Develop simple algorithms for spatio-temporal data streams management
  6. Develop spatial and spatio-temporal queries using SQL-like expressions

Forms of Teaching

Lectures

Theory foundation with examples.

Other Forms of Group and Self Study

Students are divided into groups of 2. Each group is assigned a separate data set. By completing a project using an assigned data set, students exhibit relevant practical skills and application of learned theoretical concepts in the area of big spatial and spatio-temporal data management.
