How Databases NoSQL Helps Teaching Databases, Geometry, and Remote Sensing Simultaneously
Peter Baumann · 2020
Array Databases, offering actionable datacubes, are increasingly used for flexible's callable Earth data services. Technically, Array Databases converge several concepts that are also taught - separately - in science ang engineering: Linear Algebra as in Analytical Geometry, query languages as in databases, and image processing as in remote sensing. This begs the question: can such a tool be used for such diverse teaching in a meaningful way, thereby also provoking possibly surprising new correlations with students? In following this idea, in this contribution we explore how Array Databases can serve for educational purposes in undergraduate education.
