商品簡介
Big Data has the power to change all aspects of agriculture, environmental protection and healthcare, especially in developing countries, by allowing new levels of analysis and tailoring of impacts. The book considers how big data will benefit smallholder farmers relative to global multinationals, and can change the way lenders assess creditworthiness of potential borrowers. Data privacy and security are important issues. The key ideas, concepts and theories presented are explored, illustrated and contrasted through in-depth case studies of developing world-based big data companies and deployment and utilization of big data in agriculture, environmental protection and healthcare.
