Abstract. This study aims to explore the important role of data-like cube structures in modern remote sensing data processing and data analysis through ArcPy and Python multiprocessing techniques. A multi-scale spatial data cube is innovatively developed to improve the efficiency of remote sensing data management and optimize data analysis. The core of this study is to define and implement grid cells of different sizes that form the basis of data cube, and to quantify the efficient coverage of specific areas using Python multiprocessing techniques. Experiments were conducted in Hainan Province, and efficient data coverage of the whole Hainan Province was realized using the grid data method, which significantly reduced the amount of remote sensing data and processing time required. This shows that the method has successfully improving data coverage capacity and utilization efficiency. The results of this study not only demonstrate the effective application of data-like cubes in remote sensing data processing and analysis, but also provide new perspectives and methods for future complex spatial data analysis and large-scale remote sensing data processing.
