Meteorological Data Analysis Using MapReduce

الملخص EN

In the atmospheric science, the scale of meteorological data is massive and growing rapidly.

K-means is a fast and available cluster algorithm which has been used in many fields.

However, for the large-scale meteorological data, the traditional K-means algorithm is not capable enough to satisfy the actual application needs efficiently.

This paper proposes an improved MK-means algorithm (MK-means) based on MapReduce according to characteristics of large meteorological datasets.

The experimental results show that MK-means has more computing ability and scalability.
