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 for processing spatio-temporal data, or by implementing algorithms for mining spatio-temporal data. The existing ecosystem of spatial and spatio-temporal data analytics can be categorized into three groups, (1) spatial databases (SQL and NoSQL), (2) big spatio-temporal data processing infrastructures, and (3) programming languages and software tools for processing spatio-temporal data. Since existing surveys mostly investigated big data infrastructures for processing spatial data, this survey has explored the whole ecosystem of spatial and spatio-temporal analytics along with an up-to-date review of big spatial data processing systems. This survey also portrays the importance and future of spatial and spatio-temporal data analytics.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.09883v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2103.09883v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"a-survey-on-spatio-temporal-data-analytics","repo_url":"https://github.com/anitagraser/movement-analysis-tools","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"survey","task_name":"Survey"}],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
