Spatio-temporal search techniques for the semantic web

Abstract

Recently, a study on geo semantic web has been actively conducted. Geo semantic web is intelligence geography information web service technology that is combined geospatial web with semantic web. It can efficiently provide by integrating various geospatial and non-geospatial information. However, spatial-time data processing as a whole is suffering from a shortage of study. Moreover related standard is not established. Therefore, in this paper, we propose ontology, querying, reasoning about spatio-temporal data processing that applying various related processing technology and progress. Also, it is demonstrated effectiveness of system by applying to virtual scenario that requires spatio-temporal. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
