Geospatial interpolation analytics for data streams in eventshop

EventShop is an open-source software which provides a generic infrastructure for the analysis of heterogeneous spatio-temporal data streams. Efficient interpolation of data from spatially sparse sources is critical but currently missing in EventShop. To address this challenge, we implement a Spatial Gaussian Process based statistical operator into the EventShop framework. Spectral analysis is employed to generate features at higher spatial resolution and to improve interpolation accuracy at unsampled locations. Further, we test this operator by interpolating air pollution levels in California. The evaluations of multiple metrics demonstrate that our operators outperform earlier EventShop operators, chemical transportation models, and state-of-the-art methods.
