iHARP's Dr.Mohamed Mokbel (UMN),
and his former student, Ahmed Eldawy, recently received the prestigious
award 2025 IEEE ICDE 10-Year Influential Paper Award with for our work
on Big Spatial Data, where they have built the SpatialHadoop open-source
system.
In that work, they have
built and released the SpatialHadoop open-source system, which significantly impacted the way that big spatial data is supported in
open-source and commercial systems. SpatialHadoop has been heavily used
by domain scientists worldwide and is a predecessor of many other
systems.
Please join iHARP in congratulating Dr.Mohamed Mokbel (UMN) on this amazing achievement!
