Apache Sedona (formerly GeoSpark) is an open-source framework designed for processing and analyzing large-scale spatial data in a distributed computing environment.[1][2] It originated as GeoSpark in 2010 by researchers at Arizona State University[3] and later entered incubation with the Apache Software Foundation in 2020. It graduated as a top-level project in February 2023.[4]
Overview
[edit]Sedona is a framework that facilities distributed geospatial data processing. It integrates with Apache Spark, Apache Flink, Snowflake[5][6] and includes Spatial Datasets and Spatial SQL functions to loading, processing, and analyzing large-scale geospatial data across systems.[7] It supports spatial data formats, including GeoJSON, Well Known Text and Well-Known Binary[8][9] as well as multiple coding languages, including Java, Python, R, Scala, and SQL.[10][11]
History
[edit]The project was initiated as GeoSpark by Jia Yu and Mohamed "Mo" Sarwart at Arizona State University in 2010.[12] In 2020, the project was submitted to the Apache Software Foundation[13] and graduated in 2023.
