商品簡介
Because geospatial resources are distributed so widely across the Internet, they are difficult to find. Here specialists offer help on methodologies and technologies for finding such resources, and on emergent applications of such resources. Among the topics are describing and selecting collections of geo-referenced media items in peer-to-peer retrieval systems, managing schema evolution in a federated spatial database system, semantic enrichment for geospatial information in a tourism recommender system, analyzing tourist behavior based on tracking data collected by geospatial positioning systems, and user-friendly geoportal interfaces for geospatial resource discovery.
