A System for GIS Polygonal Overlay Computation on Linux Cluster - An Experience and Performance Report
GIS polygon-based (also know as vector-based) spatial data overlay computation is much more complex than raster data computation. Processing of polygonal spatial data files has been a long standing research question in GIS community due to the irregular and data intensive nature of the underlying computation. The state-of-the-art software for overlay computation in GIS community is still desktop-based. We present a cluster-based distributed solution for end-to-end polygon overlay processing, modeled after our Windows Azure cloud-based Crayons system [1]. We present the details of porting Crayons system to MPI-based Linux cluster and show the improvements made by employing efficient data structures such as R-trees. We present performance report and show the scalability of our system, along with the remaining bottlenecks. Our experimental results show an absolute speedup of 15x for end-to-end overlay computation employing up to 80 cores.
