In order to examine spatio-temporal characteristics of coastal water quality, we applied GIS spatial analysis to the water quality data collected from observation points located on Korean coastal area during 1997$\sim$2004. The water quality parameters measured included: chlorophyll-a, pH, DO, COD, SS, dissolved inorganic nitrogen, dissolved inorganic phosphorous, salinity, temperature. The water quality data used in this paper was obtained only at selected sites even though they are potentially available at any location in a continuous surface. Thus, it is necessary to estimate the values at unsampled locations so as to analyze spatial distribution patterns of coastal water quality, Owing to this reason, we applied IDW(inverse distance weighted) interpolation method to water quality data and evaluated the usefulness of IDW method. After IDW interfolation method was applied, we divided the Korean coastal area into 46 sections and examined spatio-temporal patterns of each section using GIS visualization technique. As a result of evaluation, we can blow that IDW interpolation and GIS are useful for understanding spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of coastal water quality data which is collected from a wide area far many years.

멀티미디어 정보 표현에 있어서 서로 다른 미디어간의 동기화를 효과적으로 처리하는 것이 아주 중요하다. 멀티미디어 특성이 적용된 게임 개발에 있어서 각각의 시각 객체들이 시간 경과에 따라 공간 영역에서 동시에 움직여야 하므로 게임에서 필요한 멀티미디어적인 게임 요소들을 게임 운용상에 적절히 배치시키기 위해서는 게임 장면을 통한 시간과 공간 개념의 동기화가 필요하고 게임 객체 자신이 가지고 있는 시공간 특성이 논리적으로 설계되어 게임을 운용시켜야 한다. 따라서 멀티미디어 시스템에서 혼합된 형태의 미디어로 구성된 데이터의 표현을 위해서는 객체가 나타내는 상대적인 위치와 상대적인 시간을 나타내 주는 공간 합성과 시간 합성을 명시할 수 있는 정형화된 표현 연구가 요구된다. 간(刊)기존 연구들은 대부분 시간적 동기화와 공간적 동기화 각각에 대한 표현에 많이 치우쳐 있으므로 시간과 공간이 통합된 미디어들의 동기화 표현에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 시공간이 통합되지 않는 기존의 멀티미디어 표현법을 게임 개발에 적용할 때에는 게임에 사용되는 미디어 객체간의 원활한 동기화 표현이 쉽지 않다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 게임 시나리오 스케치에서 나타난 게임 객체들의 시공간 개념이 적절히 표현될 수 있는 정형적 연구가 필요하다. 간(刊)본 논문에서는 시간 개념과 공간 개념이 통합된 형태의 시공간 동기화를 표현하기 위하여 명세 단계에서 멀티미디어 데이터가 시간 및 공간 개념을 적절히 변형하여 표현될 수 있도록 시간 및 공간 동기화가 통합된 새로운 표현법을 제안한다. 이를 위하여 게임 요소들의 시간적, 공간적 동기화를 표현하기 위한 방법을 언명으로 정의하고 시공간 관계성에 대한 확장을 제시한다. 간(刊)본 논문이 제안하는 언명 기반 멀티미디어 객체의 시공간 동기화 모델(an Assertion-based Multimedia objects Spatio-TEmporal Synchronization model : AMSTES)는 시간과 공간 모두에 적용되는 게임 객체들의 시공간 동기화 표현 방법과 이를 이용하여 실제 실행 가능한 코드 생성을 위한 시공간 공식을 제공한다.

Spatio-temporal join operators are essential to the management of spatio-temporal data such as moving objects. For example, the join operators are parts of processing to analyze movement of objects and search similar patterns of moving objects. Various studies on spatio-temporal join queries in outdoor space have been done. Recently with advance of indoor positioning techniques, location based services are required in indoor space as well as outdoor space. Nevertheless there is no one about processing of spatio-temporal join query in indoor space. In this paper, we introduce continuous spatio-temporal self-join queries in indoor space and propose a method of processing of the join queries over stream data of moving objects. The continuous spatio-temporal self-join query is to update the joined result set satisfying spatio-temporal predicates continuously. We assume that positions of moving objects are represented by symbols such as a room or corridor. This paper proposes a data structure, called Candidate Pairs Buffer, to filter and maintain massive stream data efficiently and we also investigate performance of proposed method in experimental study.

Recently, according to the development of ubiquitous computing technology, the efficient management of locations of moving objects is increasing rapidly in various fields. However, MODBMS and DSMS can not support the efficient real-time management of spatio-temporal stream data of moving objects. Therefore, this paper designed and implemented a spatio-temporal DSMS which can support the efficient real-time management of spatio-temporal stream data of moving objects. Especially, to develop the spatio-temporal DSMS, we extended STREAM of Stanford University and used GEOS that supports spatial data types and spatial operators of OGC. Finally, this paper proved the efficiency of the spatio-temporal DSMS by applying it to the real-time monitoring field which requires the real-time management of spatio-temporal stream data of moving objects.

So far, significant achievements have been studied on the development of models for spatial and spatiotemporal objects with indeterminate boundaries which are found in many applications for geographic analysis and image understanding. Therefore, in this paper we propose the spatiotemporal data model which is applicable for spatial and spatiotemporal objects with uncertainty. Based on this model, we defined topological relationships among the indeterminate spatiotemporal objects and designed the algorithm for the operations. For compatibility with existing spatial models, the proposed model has been designed by extending the spatiotemporal object model which is based on the open GIS specification. We defined indeterminate spatial objects, such as the objects whose position and the shape change discretely over time, and the objects whose shape changes continuously as well as the position. We defined topological relationships among these objects using the extended 9-IM. The proposed model can be efficiently applied to the management systems of natural resource data, westher information, geographic information. and so on.

Most of works have been performed on representation of spatiotemporal objects from various points of view. Most of them represent spatiotemporal objects using approaches from GIS, temporal databases, object-oriented databases or data type. Spatiotemporal objects can be classified as objects whose position and shape changes discretely over time, objects whose position changes continuously and objects whose shape changes continuously as well as position. Previous works on spatiotemporal model have focused on only one of them. In this paper, we propose a spatiotemporal model that can represent three types of objects in Euclidean plan. For this purpose, we represent both discrete and continuous moving objects by defining temporal model extended from valid time and by defining relationship between two consecutive versions of objects. The proposed spatiotemporal object model is based on open GIS specification so that it has compatibility with existing spatial data model.

The spatiotemporal database concerns about the time-varying spatial attributes. One of the important research areas is related to the support of various location-based services in motile communication environments. It is known that database systems may be difficult to manage the accurate geometric locations of moving objects due to their continual changes of locations. However, this requirement is necessary in various spatiotemporal applications including mobile communications, traffic control and military command and control (C2) systems. In this paper we propose the $B^{st}$-tree that utilizes the concept of multi-version B-trees. It provides an indexing method (or the historical and future range query Processing on moving object's trajectories. Also we present a dynamic version management algorithm that determines the appropriate version evolution induced by the mobility patterns to keep the query performance. With experiments we .;hi)w that our indexing approach is a viable alternative in this area.

Visual analysis of spatiotemporal data has focused on a variety of techniques for analyzing and exploring the data. The goal of these techniques is to explore the spatiotemporal data using time information, discover patterns in the data, and analyze spatiotemporal data. The overall trend flow patterns help users analyze geo-referenced temporal events. However, it is difficult to extract and visualize overall trend flow patterns using data that has no trajectory information for movements. In order to visualize overall trend flow patterns, in this paper, we estimate continuous distributions of discrete events over time using KDE, and we extract vector fields from the continuous distributions using the gravity model. We then apply our technique on twitter data to validate techniques.

Ontologies, which are consist of entities and their relationships, have been used to implement various scenarios of information services. That is because an entity can be understood well when the surrounding entities and the relationships are known. In describing historical events. The spatio-temporal locations connote the historical context comprehensively. Therefore spatio-temporal locations are one of the most important carriers to connect the historical events. In this paper we analyzed the usage scenarios to access and retrieve historical information, and proposed the design of ontologies for historical information services for making historical stories based on spatio-temporal reference frame.
