gis-tools-for-hadoop

The GIS Tools for Hadoop are a collection of GIS tools that leverage the Spatial Framework for Hadoop for spatial analysis of big data. The tools make use of the Geoprocessing Tools for Hadoop toolbox, to provide access to the Hadoop system from the ArcGIS Geoprocessing environment.

What's New

• Sample: direct use of Enclosed and Unenclosed Esri- and Geo- JSON InputFormats
• Update: use updated non-deprecated names EsriJsonSerDe and EnclosedEsriJsonInputFormat in samples after having added support for GeoJSON
• Tutorial: An Introduction for Beginners

Features

• Sample tools that demonstrate full stack implementations of all the resources provided to solve GIS problems using Hadoop

Resources for building custom tools

• Esri Geometry API Java - Java geometry library for spatial data processing
• Spatial Framework for Hadoop
  • Java helper utilities for Hadoop developers
  • Hive spatial user-defined functions
• Geoprocessing Tools - ArcGIS Geoprocessing tools for Hadoop

Instructions

Start out by navigating to samples and following the instructions provided with each sample.There are also tutorials for using the GP tools and aggregation methods.

Requirements

Requirements will differ depending on the needs of each tool. At a minimum, you will need:

• Access to an Apache Hadoop cluster
• ArcGIS for Desktop or Server for geoprocessing and visualization

Other requirements may include:

• Apache Hive in order to run Hive queries
• Apache Oozie Workflow Scheduler for workflow scheduling

Additional requirements will be spelled out by individual tools.
