FAQ

How does Wherobots accelerate my spatial data workflows?

Wherobots is a a high-performance, cloud-native spatial intelligence engine (WherobotsDB) optimized for geospatial data (vector and raster). By utilizing an efficient implementation of Apache Sedona, it allows developers to process massive, planetary-scale datasets 5x to 20x faster and at a fraction of the cost of general-purpose cloud engines.

What languages and developer frameworks are supported in Wherobots?

Wherobots supports the most common data and spatial development interfaces. You can develop using:
  • Spatial SQL
  • Python
  • Scala
  • Java
The platform offers a seamless development experience through familiar Jupyter notebooks and integrates with existing data workflows through REST APIs, client SDKs (e.g., Python driver, Java JDBC driver), and an Apache Airflow provider for pipeline orchestration.

Which spatial functions are supported in Wherobots?

Wherobots has built-in support for over 300 spatial functions, including standard ST_ and RS_ functions for geometry processing, spatial predicates, and large-scale joins. In addition, Wherobots supports a wide range of advanced spatial functions for scalable analytics, including:
  • Spatial joins (point-in-polygon, polygon-to-polygon)
  • kNN join for nearest neighbor queries
  • Zonal statistics on raster layers
  • Travel isochrones to define travel areas within a specified time
  • GPS map matching for real-time mobility data
  • Raster inference with deployed AI models
  • PMtiles generation for fast map visualization
