  • Mapping Spatiotemporal Data to RDF: a SPARQL Endpoint for Brussels
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article Mapping Spatiotemporal Data to RDF: A SPARQL Endpoint for Brussels Alejandro Vaisman 1, * and Kevin Chentout 2 1 Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires 1424, Argentina 2 Sopra Banking Software, Avenue de Tevuren 226, B-1150 Brussels, Belgium * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +54-11-3457-4864 Received: 20 June 2019; Accepted: 7 August 2019; Published: 10 August 2019 Abstract: This paper describes how a platform for publishing and querying linked open data for the Brussels Capital region in Belgium is built. Data are provided as relational tables or XML documents and are mapped into the RDF data model using R2RML, a standard language that allows defining customized mappings from relational databases to RDF datasets. In this work, data are spatiotemporal in nature; therefore, R2RML must be adapted to allow producing spatiotemporal Linked Open Data.Data generated in this way are used to populate a SPARQL endpoint, where queries are submitted and the result can be displayed on a map. This endpoint is implemented using Strabon, a spatiotemporal RDF triple store built by extending the RDF store Sesame. The first part of the paper describes how R2RML is adapted to allow producing spatial RDF data and to support XML data sources. These techniques are then used to map data about cultural events and public transport in Brussels into RDF. Spatial data are stored in the form of stRDF triples, the format required by Strabon. In addition, the endpoint is enriched with external data obtained from the Linked Open Data Cloud, from sites like DBpedia, Geonames, and LinkedGeoData, to provide context for analysis.

  • Identifying Locations of Social Significance: Aggregating Social Media Content to Create a New Trust Model for Exploring Crowd Sourced Data and Information
    Identifying Locations of Social Significance: Aggregating Social Media Content to Create a New Trust Model for Exploring Crowd Sourced Data and Information Al Di Leonardo, Scott Fairgrieve Adam Gribble, Frank Prats, Wyatt Smith, Tracy Sweat, Abe Usher, Derek Woodley, and Jeffrey B. Cozzens The HumanGeo Group, LLC Arlington, Virginia, United States {al,scott,adam,frank,wyatt,tracy,abe,derek}@thehumangeo.com Abstract. Most Internet content is no longer produced directly by corporate organizations or governments. Instead, individuals produce voluminous amounts of informal content in the form of social media updates (micro blogs, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and other artifacts of community communication on the Web. This grassroots production of information has led to an environment where the quantity of low-quality, non-vetted information dwarfs the amount of professionally produced content. This is especially true in the geospatial domain, where this information onslaught challenges Local and National Governments and Non- Governmental Organizations seeking to make sense of what is happening on the ground. This paper proposes a new model of trust for interpreting locational data without a clear pedigree or lineage. By applying principles of aggregation and inference, it is possible to identify locations of social significance and discover “facts” that are being asserted by crowd sourced information. Keywords: geospatial, social media, aggregation, trust, location. 1 Introduction Gathering geographical data on populations has always constituted an essential element of census taking, political campaigning, assisting in humanitarian disasters/relief, law enforcement, and even in post-conflict areas where grand strategy looks beyond the combat to managing future peace. Warrior philosophers have over the millennia praised indirect approaches to warfare as the most effective means of combat—where influence and information about enemies and their supporters trumps reliance on kinetic operations to achieve military objectives.

  • A Review of Openstreetmap Data Peter Mooney* and Marco Minghini† *Department of Computer Science, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co
    CHAPTER 3 A Review of OpenStreetMap Data Peter Mooney* and Marco Minghini† *Department of Computer Science, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland, [email protected] †Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza Leonardo da Vinci 32, 20133 Milano, Italy Abstract While there is now a considerable variety of sources of Volunteered Geo- graphic Information (VGI) available, discussion of this domain is often exem- plified by and focused around OpenStreetMap (OSM). In a little over a decade OSM has become the leading example of VGI on the Internet. OSM is not just a crowdsourced spatial database of VGI; rather, it has grown to become a vast ecosystem of data, software systems and applications, tools, and Web-based information stores such as wikis. An increasing number of developers, indus- try actors, researchers and other end users are making use of OSM in their applications. OSM has been shown to compare favourably with other sources of spatial data in terms of data quality. In addition to this, a very large OSM community updates data within OSM on a regular basis. This chapter provides an introduction to and review of OSM and the ecosystem which has grown to support the mission of creating a free, editable map of the whole world. The chapter is especially meant for readers who have no or little knowledge about the range, maturity and complexity of the tools, services, applications and organisations working with OSM data. We provide examples of tools and services to access, edit, visualise and make quality assessments of OSM data. We also provide a number of examples of applications, such as some of those How to cite this book chapter: Mooney, P and Minghini, M.

M.Sc.E. thesis, Department of Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering Technical Report No. 315, University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, 116 pp. ABSTRACT Geocoded locations have become necessary in many GIS analysis, cartography and decision-making workflows. A reliable geocoding system that can effectively return any location on earth with sufficient accuracy is desired. This study is motivated by a need for a geocoding system to support university campus applications. To this end, the existing geocoding systems were examined. Address-based geocoding systems use address-matching method to retrieve geographic locations from postal addresses. They present limitations in locality coverage, input address standardization, and address database maintenance.

  • Geocoding and Buffering Addresses in Arcgis
    Spatial Structures in the Social Sciences Geocoding Geocoding and Buffering Addresses in ArcGIS INTRODUCTION Geocoding is the process of assigning location coordinates in a continuous, globlal reference system (Latitude and Longitude, for instance) to street addresses. While street addresses are an easy to understand way for us to make sense of locations in a local area there are many problems will using them for distinguishing locations in the world. Street addresses are generally considered location identifiers within a local reference system; furthermore, a street address system is often discrete, meaning it is only effective for positions that fall on the street network. For this reason the US street network has been digitized and coordinates (lat/long for instance) have been determined for the two points that specify individual line segments (smallest line segments possible). In addition to the global coordinates the street address range for each side of the street is also specified for that segment of the street network. Therefore, based on the known range of street addresses and lat/long coordinates a reasonable approximation can be made of the location of an address on a street in global coordinates. DATA and SHAPEFILES Geocodebuffer.zip can be downloaded from the S4 tutorials section of the training page (http://www.s4.brown.edu/S4/about.htm) It contains: 1) NOSchoolsaddrs.xls: Excel file of addresses of currently open schools in New Orleans 2) NOstreets.shp: a street file for all of Louisiana, the state in which you will be geocoding addresses. 3) Katrina_damage_all2.shp: a file displaying damage sustained across New Orleans from Katrina.

  • Rdfa Versus Microformats: Exploring the Potential for Semantic Interoperability of Mash-Up Personal Learning Environments
    RDFa versus Microformats: Exploring the Potential for Semantic Interoperability of Mash-up Personal Learning Environments Vladimir Tomberg, Mart Laanpere Tallinn University, Narva mnt. 25, 10120 Tallinn, Estonia [email protected], [email protected] Abstract. This paper addresses the possibilities for increasing semantic interoperability of mash-up learning environments through the use of automatically processed metadata associated with both learning resources and learning process. We analyze and compare potential of two competing technologies for this purpose: microformats and RDFa. 1 Introduction Mash-up Personal Learning Environments have become a fast developing trend in the world of technology-enhanced learning, partly because of their flexibility and lightweight integration features. Although it is quite easy to aggregate the RSS feeds from the blogs of learners, it is more difficult to get an overview of course and its learning activities. A course is not just a syllabus, it also involves various dynamic processes that can be described in many aspects. The course always has certain learning goals, a schedule that consists learning activities (assignments, discussions), registered participants like teachers and students, and different types of resources. It would be useful, if we would be able to extract such information also from mash-up personal learning environments (just like it can be done in traditional Learning Management Systems) and allow exchanging it between the course participants. Today for semantic tagging of Web content in general and learning content as special case various technologies are used. But there are no tools and ways exist for semantic annotation of learning process that takes place in a distributed network of mash-up personal learning environments.
