big data store

enabling geospatial insights with your IoT ArcGIS & the IoT

• The spatiotemporal

big data store is a

distributed, highly

available data store

• Visualize on-the-fly

aggregations of data

• Switch visualization

from aggregation to

raw features

• Perform exploratory

queries over any

combination of space,

time, and attributes

• Spatiotemporal Analysis

- Tools honor both dimensions

- Focus on aggregation and pattern detection

• Parallelized compute

- Spark as framework for parallelized

compute

• Connection to external data sources

- Use existing enterprise data via

big data file shares

• Run analysis as Python script

- Pipeline analysis

- Extent analysis via PySpark and SparkML

ArcGIS Analytics for IoTreal-time & big data GIS as a service

target use cases

Analytics for IoT

• Fleet & field crew tracking

- Snow plows, waste management, postal carriers, ships, park/facility

staff monitoring, container tracking

• Human movement analysis

- Site selection & planning, event monitoring

• System status, health, and response

- Grid/network outages & crew assignment, outage pattern

assessment, air quality status over clean-up sites

• Telematics

- Traffic counts for traffic signal optimization, roadway issue detection

& response, weather hazard alerting

FeedsReal-time, streaming data

• Real-time, streaming data

• Visualize directly in web maps

- Clients receive & display new data

immediately

- Behaves like stream layer

• Share as item

- Provides access to data for

visualization & analysis

Analysis toolsSpatiotemporal capabilities

• Stream layers

- Underlying visualization for Feeds

- User-defined output from analytics

• Feature layers

- User-defined output from analytics

- Data stored & hosted in Analytics for IoT

- Support dynamic aggregation (custom Javascript apps)

• Map image layers

- Created with every feature layer

- Support dynamic aggregation

- Rendering configurable via Analytics for IoT app

VisualizationVisualizing observational data & analysis

• Observational data can be stored to

feature layers

• Data retention period chosen by

user

- E.g. N weeks, N months

• Older data can be automatically

transitioned to archive (‘cold store’)

- Archived data can be leveraged for

analysis via big data analytics

StorageObservational data archive

Demo:

Analytics for IoT

• Key Capabilities:

- Feeds: configure a real-time data stream & share it, visualize as live layer

- Real-Time Analytics: work on a Feed, identify activity of interest, take action

- Big Data Analytics: run on ArcGIS or other big data stores, assess spatiotemporal

patterns, take action
