Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for stochastic compression of raster data are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes obtaining at least one compression ratio and at least one error value for a given set of raster data; compressing at least a portion of the given set of raster data based at least in part on the at least one compression ratio and the at least one error value; transmitting the compressed raster data, to at least one given destination, based at least in part on a given transmission speed variable; and performing one or more automated actions based at least in part on the transmitted compressed raster data.

Abstract: A system, computer program product, and method are presented for forecasting a spatio-temporal calendar including predicted regions of interest based on time dependent factors such as long-term weather predictions, time-independent factors, and travel constraints. The method includes collecting information and constraints with respect to service visits. At least a portion of the collected information and constraints are directed toward weather and climate. The method also includes predicting weather and climate impacts on at least one geographical region of interest. The method further includes predicting, subject to the predictions of weather and climate impacts, one or more locations of interest within the at least one geographical region of interest that would be impacted by one or more service visits. The method also includes generating one or more spatio-temporal calendars that include the one or more locations of interest scheduled for the one or more service visits.
