Ymchwil

My interests cover a range of topics related to modeling, structuring, visualisation and intelligent retrieval of spatially referenced and spatiotemporal information. One key area of interest is the development of qualitative spatiotemporal representation and reasoning techniques and their practical realisation and use in large spatial data stores and on the Semantic Web. I am actively working in the area of geographic information retrieval, researching methods for developing and managing geo-ontologies, as well as methods for modeling and discovering spatiotemporal semantics in the context of the Social and Semantic Geospatial Web.
