Dear Sir,
This is Maojun Wang ,from China Meteorological Administration Public Meteorological Service Center. Now i am using sparkSQL to count some Statistics,But now I am very very
interested of how to implement some algorithm about Meteorological , like Interpolation algorithm,Kriging  Interpolation algorithm,Cressman Interpolation algorithm,IDW
Interpolation algorithm and so on.
 
I questions:
 
What kind of algorithm can be written with spark?
 
Yours faithfully

That's perhaps too broad to answer here. Generally, any algorithm that is data-parallel will do well on Spark (or indeed, on MapReduce). And ones that aren't data-parallel do not. I am not familiar with any of those algorithms, but that's the question to answer.
