The following analytic processes are available and optimized on GeoMesa data stores.
DensityProcess- computes a density heatmap for a CQL query- HashAttributeColorProcess and HashAttributeProcess - computes an additional 'hash' attribute which is useful for styling.
KNearestNeighborSearchProcess- performs a KNN search- Point2PointProcess - aggregates a collection of points into a collection of line segments
ProximitySearchProcess- performs a nearest neighbor search- SamplingProcess - uses statistical sampling to reduces the features returned by a query
StatsIteratorProcess- returns various stats for a CQL queryTubeSelectProcess- performs a correlated search across time/space dimensionsQueryProcess- optimizes GeoMesa queries in WPS chainsUniqueProcess- identifies unique values for an attribute in results of a CQL queryJoinProcess- returns merged features from two different schemas using a common attribute field
The above extensions are particular to the Accumulo datastore.
While they can be used independently, the common use case is to use them with GeoServer. To deploy them in GeoServer, one will require a) the GeoMesa Accumulo datastore plugin, b) the GeoServer WPS extension, and c) the geomesa-process-${VERSION}.jar to be deployed in ${GEOSERVER_HOME}/WEB-INF/lib.
The GeoMesa Accumulo datastore plugin and GeoMesa process jars are both available in the binary distribution in the gs-plugins directory.
Documentation about the GeoServer WPS Extension (including download instructions) is available here: http://docs.geoserver.org/2.8.1/user/extensions/wps/install.html.
To verify the install, start GeoServer, and you should see a line like INFO [geoserver.wps] - Found 11 bindable processes in GeoMesa Process Factory.
In the GeoServer web UI, click 'Demos' and then 'WPS request builder'. From the request builder, under 'Choose Process', click on any of the 'geomesa:' options to build up example requests and in some cases see results.
