Naive Geography’s premise “Topology matters, metric refines” calls for metric properties that provide opportunities for finergrained distinctions than the purely qualitative...
In this paper, we formalize the novel concept of Constrained Reverse k-Nearest Neighbor (CRkNN) search on mobile objects (clients) performed at a central server. The CRkNN query c...
While conventional GIS maps have long been a privileged way for the integration and diffusion of geographical information, novel forms of representation and description of urban ...

Gazetteers are key components of georeferenced information systems, including applications such as Web-based mapping services. Existing gazetteers lack the capabilities to fully i...
We propose an automatic approach to tree detection from aerial imagery. First a pixel-level classifier is trained to assign a {tree, non-tree} label to each pixel in an aerial im...
Time geography uses space-time volumes to represent the possible locations of a mobile agent over time in a x-y-t space. Space-time volumes are qualitative statements, enabling qu...
Situational awareness of urban flooding during storm events is important for disaster and emergency management. However, no general purpose tools yet exist for rendering rainfall ...
The k-anonymity technique is widely used to provide location privacy protection for accessing location-based services (LBS), i.e., the exact location of a query initiator is cloak...
Space- and time-referenced data published on the Web by general people can be viewed in a dual way: as independent spatiotemporal events and as trajectories of people in the geogr...
