Description
Summary:Abstract The rapid development of big data analytics technologies and tools, particularly the related distributed computing technologies, which divide large problems into smaller ones, provides important technical support for developing big earth data research. To realize the effective utilization of big data computing resources, it is important to overcome the potential incompatibility and inconsistency among the distributed computing nodes. Using standardized GIS web service interfaces is a promising approach to link existing heterogeneous GIS platforms through standardized protocols and establish a universal, platform-independent computing layer to improve the efficiency of computing resources for big earth data analysis. This research analyzed the requirements of distributed computing, and further proposed a standardized GIS web service-oriented shared-nothing architecture by comparing various mainstream distributed computing architectures and related web service specifications in the industry. For example, the prediction of Lophelia pertusa coral distribution by random forest is the application of the method discussed in this paper.
