At present, the practice of supporting many types of human activities requires the use of the spatial data infrastructure. Such an infrastructure integrates spatio-temporal sets from many sources of information within itself, providing the user with various types of processing, analysis and visualization methods. This article describes the architecture of the software system and the processes for managing sets of spatio-temporal data to solve agricultural problems. Measurement data using multispectral satellite systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), as well as a priori information (meteorology, agrochemical information, etc.) are taken as input information. The User of the Software System is provided with the opportunity to control the spatial information of the territory of agricultural fields, sets of temporal data from various spatial data. An important achievement of the work is the combination of the results of satellite and UAV images according to the controlled parameters, that makes possible to expand the area of use of UAVs and verify them. The results of real data processing are presented.

A Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) is a framework of geospatial data, metadata, users and tools intended to provide an efficient and flexible way to use spatial information. One of the key software components of an SDI is the catalogue service which is needed to discover, query, and manage the metadata. Catalogue services in an SDI are typically based on the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Catalogue Service for the Web (CSW) standard which defines common interfaces for accessing the metadata information. A search engine is a software system capable of supporting fast and reliable search, which may use “any means necessary” to get users to the resources they need quickly and efficiently. These techniques may include features such as full text search, natural language processing, weighted results, fuzzy tolerance results, faceting, hit highlighting, recommendations, feedback mechanisms based on log mining, usage statistic gathering, and many others. In this paper we will be focusing on improving geospatial search with a search engine platform that uses Lucene, a Java-based search library, at its core. In work funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Centre for Geographic Analysis (CGA) at Harvard University is in the process of re-engineering the search component of its public domain SDI (WorldMap http://worldmap.harvard.edu ) which is based on the GeoNode platform. In the process the CGA has developed Harvard Hypermap (HHypermap), a map services registry and search platform independent from WorldMap. The goal of HHypermap is to provide a framework for building and maintaining a comprehensive registry of web map services, and because such a registry is expected to be large, the system supports the development of clients with modern search capabilities such as spatial and temporal faceting and instant previews via an open API. Behind the scenes HHypermap scalably harvests OGC and Esri service metadata from distributed servers, organizes that information, and pushes it to a search engine. The system monitors services for reliability and uses that to improve search. End users will be able to search the SDI metadata using standard interfaces provided by the internal CSW catalogue, and will benefit from the enhanced search possibilities provided by an advanced search engine. HHypermap is built on an open source software source stack.

One of the key software components of a SDI is the catalogue service, needed to discover, query and manage the metadata. Catalogue services in a SDI are typically based on the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Catalogue Service for the Web (CSW) standard, that defines common interfaces to access the metadata information. A search engine is a software system able to perform very fast and reliable search, with features such as full text search, natural language processing, weighted results, fuzzy tolerance results, faceting, hit highlighting and many others. The Centre of Geographic Analysis (CGA) at Harvard University is trying to integrate within its public domain SDI (named WorldMap), the benefits of both worlds (OGC catalogues and search engines). Harvard Hypermap (HHypermap) is a component that will be part of WorldMap, totally built on an open source stack, implementing an OGC catalogue, based on pycsw, to provide access to metadata in a standard way, and a search engine, based on Solr/Lucene, to provide the advanced search features typically found in search engines.

The spatial information regarding the use of territory is one of the many strategies used to answer and to inform about what happened, what is happening and what may happen in geographic space. Therefore, the mapping of land use as a communication tool for the spatial data made significant progress in improving sources of information, especially over the last few decades, with new generation remote sensing products for data manipulation.

Due to the surge of spatio-temporal data volume, the popularity of location-based services and applications, and the importance of extracted knowledge from spatio-temporal data to solve a wide range of real-world problems, a plethora of research and development work has been done in the area of spatial and spatio-temporal data analytics in the past decade. The main goal of existing works was to develop algorithms and technologies to capture, store, manage, analyze, and visualize spatial or spatio-temporal data. The researchers have contributed either by adding spatio-temporal support with existing systems, by developing a new system from scratch, or by implementing algorithms for processing spatio-temporal data. The existing ecosystem of spatial and spatio-temporal data analytics systems can be categorized into three groups, (1) spatial databases (SQL and NoSQL), (2) big spatial data processing infrastructures, and (3) programming languages and GIS software. Since existing surveys mostly investigated infrastructures for processing big spatial data, this survey has explored the whole ecosystem of spatial and spatio-temporal analytics. This survey also portrays the importance and future of spatial and spatio-temporal data analytics.
