A vast amount of data is generated and collected every moment and often, data has a spatial and/or temporal aspect. This increasing data generation and collection is resulting in increasing volume and varying formats of data being collected and the geospatial data collection is no exception. This posses challenges in storing, processing, analyzing and visualizing the geospatial data. This paper discusses the big data paradigm of the geospatial data and presents a taxonomy for analysis of the geospatial data. The existing literature is studied and discussed based on the proposed taxonomy for analysis of geospatial data.

The accumulation of a large amount of geospatial data requires new approaches to their processing and visualization. One of these approaches is the creation of a geomarketing system with a fundamentally new toolkit based on data clustering. The capabilities of such a system are shown using examples of housing cost assessment, determining the location of a new shopping center, a bank branch and a clinic.

This chapter aims to critically reflect on the processes, agendas and use of Big Data by presenting existing issues and problems in place and consolidating our points of views presented from different angles. This chapter also describes current practices of handling Big Data, including considerations of smaller scale data analysis and the use of data visualisation to improve business decisions and prediction of market trends. The chapter concludes that alongside any data collection, analysis and visualisation, the ‘researcher' should be fully aware of the limitations of the data, by considering the data from different perspectives, angles and lenses. Not only will this add the validation and validity of the data, but it will also provide a ‘thinking tool' by which to explore the data. Arguably providing the ‘human skill' required in a process apparently destined to be automated by machines and algorithms.

The last 40 years have seen huge innovations in computing and in the availability of data. Data derived from millions of administrative records or by using (as we do) new methods of data generation such as text mining are now common. New data often requires new methods, which in turn can inspire new data collection. If history is any guide, some methods will stick and others will prove to be a flash in the pan. However, the larger trends toward demanding greater credibility and transparency from researchers in applied economics and a 'collage' approach to assembling evidence will likely continue.
