A web interface for exploiting spatio-temporal heterogeneous data

Abstract

Nowadays, in several domains, data can be available from a multitude of sources using many models. Because of their heterogeneity, it is difficult to retrieve, combine and exploit this information. We present in this paper a Web interface for exploiting spatio-temporal heterogeneous data. The system is based on semantic data integration process using a materialization approach. A mechanism is proposed to enriched the knowledge base with spatio-temporal rules and experts knowledge. The system can be applied for various scenarios, and we illustrate this with two of our projects.
