Liang and Chih-Yuan Huang Chapter 14 OGC Standards and Geospatial Big Data ........................................279 Carl Reed © 2010 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC Preface What is big data? Due to increased interest in this phenomenon, many recent papers and reports have focused on defining and discussing this subject. A review of these publications would point to a consensus about how big data is perceived and explained. It is widely agreed that big data has three specific characteristics: volume, in terms of large-scale data storage and processing; variety, or the availability of data in different types and formats; and velocity, which refers to the fast rate of new data acquisition. These characteristics are widely referred to as the three Vs of big data, and while projects involving datasets that only feature one of these Vs are considered to be big, most datasets from such fields as science, engineering, and social media feature all three Vs. To better understand the recent spurt of interest in big data, I provide here a new and different perspective on it. I argue that the answer to the question of “What is big data?” depends on when the question is asked, what application is involved, and what computing resources are available. In other words, understanding what big data is requires an analysis of time, applications, and resources. In light of this, I categorize the time element into three groups: past (since the introduction of computing several decades ago), near-past (within the last few years), and present (now). One way of looking at the time element is that, in general, big data in the past meant dealing with gigabyte-sized datasets, in the near-past, terabyte-sized datasets, and in the present, petabyte-sized datasets. I also categorize the application element into three groups: scientific (data used for complex modeling, analysis, and simulation), business (data used for business analysis and modeling), and general (data used for general-purpose processing). Finally, I classify the resource element into two groups: advanced com- puting (specialized computing platforms)

    THE QUILT CIRCLE2020 A Letter From the President This 2020 Quilt Circle edition commemorates the 20th Anniversary of The Quilt. The fabric of our research and education (R&E) networking community has never been stronger. While our Quilt community has evolved in new and exciting ways in the past two decades, we have also been faced with a number of challenges which we take head-on and always with the spirit of collaboration. As we address the unprecedented challenges presented by the current global public health crisis due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the work of our members is more important than ever to the missions of their member communities. U.S. higher education institutions rely on R&E networks to give them a competitive edge in the most impactful scientific research initiatives which is essential in this crisis. We connect the educational institutions that support university medical centers and their associated hospitals. R&E networks also connect tens of thousands of other community anchor institutions, including K-12 schools, public libraries, local/state government, research sites, cultural institutions, public safety, and tribal lands. Being responsive and providing vital networking infrastructure and resources right now to address immediate needs is who we are and what we do. R&E networks are part of our nation’s critical infrastructure. This year’s edition of The Quilt Circle showcases several examples of the key role of R&E network members in both providing and facilitating the use-network infrastructure to further scientific discovery and collaborations at higher education institutions of all sizes.

By now, everyone in Alberta is feeling the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Combined with existing budget restrictions, WITH THE this has been one of the most difficult times ever faced by the province’s public and education sectors. I’m pleased to see the spirit of collaboration and community rise to the fore, as Alberta’s schools, post-secondary institutions, libraries, government PRESIDENT & CEO agencies, and start-ups have come together to support each other through this period. As this annual review will show, Cybera has been playing its part to facilitate these collaborations, both through offering shared services that increase efficiencies and lower costs, and through bringing groups together to exchange ideas. We now serve a wider community than ever before, having surpassed the 100-member mark this past year. Today, nearly 850,000 Albertans utilize the services Cybera provides, which created over $11 million in net savings for the public and education sectors this past year. Mindful of the important role we play in maintaining — and improving access to — digital infrastructure for such a large group, we took some time this past year to review our mission and strategy. We wanted to ensure our mandate and actions match the changing needs and priorities of our member community.

  • Cybera White Paper: Impact of COVID-19 on Rural Internet in Alberta, and Necessary Next Steps
    Cybera White Paper: Impact of COVID-19 On Rural Internet In Alberta, And Necessary Next Steps Cybera Inc. Calgary Office: Suite 200, 3512 - 33 St NW, Calgary, AB T2L 2A6 T: 403-210-5333 Edmonton Office: Suite 1101, 10065 Jasper Avenue NW, Edmonton, AB T5J 3B1 cybera.ca | [email protected] | @cybera ​ ​ ​ ​ Abstract In response to the growing COVID-19 pandemic, on March 16, 2020, the Government of Alberta ordered the immediate cancellation of on-site classes at schools and universities in the province. Today, 741,802 K-12 students and 194,010 post-secondary students in Alberta are learning from home, and will likely continue to do so until at least the end of current school semesters.1 2 A significant portion of the internet bandwidth used by these students (and their instructors) has now migrated from SuperNet and CyberaNet (which supply much of the internet connections to Alberta’s educational institutions), to private internet plans on residential networks. Overall, global internet traffic increased 56% in March, and has remained at above-average levels since.3 In this white paper, we will outline the scope of the problem in Alberta based on data from Cybera’s member base and the Research and Education Network usage statistics, as well as outreach conducted by Cybera with our K-12 and post-secondary community members, and Alberta’s rural internet service providers. This white paper will demonstrate that a significant portion of the province’s population are vulnerable to unaffordable overage charges and intermittent disconnections of service. We believe all levels of government must act now to mitigate the financial and social harms to Albertans.

We have noted in past Annual Reports how High Performance Computing (HPC) has become more prevalent within various public and private sectors. We’ve seen this driven in part by the fact that data is now constantly being collected by everything from orbiting satellites in space to environmental monitoring devices in the field to smartphones in the palms of our hand. Within the academic world, the possibilities for data collection across nearly every spectrum of research has uncovered new needs, increased demands, and exciting opportunities for HPC in a range of traditional and non- traditional discipline areas. At WestGrid, we see evidence of this growth through each increase in the number of proposals submitted to Compute Canada - Calcul Canada’s annual Resource Allocation call. Looking towards 2013, we will continue to engage new users across all disciplines and work with Compute Canada and the other regional HPC divisions to ensure the national HPC platform meets the evolving needs of our user community.
