Recently, with increase and development of the wireless access network area, u-GIS Service is supported in various fields. Especially, spatio-temporal data is used in the mobile environment for the u-GIS service. However, there is no standard for the spatio-temporal data used in different spaces, spatio-temporal data processing technology is necessary to makes interoperability among mobile u-GIS services. Furthermore, it is also necessary to develop the system of gathering, storing, and managing the spatio-temporal data in consideration of small capacity and low performance of mobile devices. Therefore, in this paper, we designed and implemented a spatio-temporal query processing system based on GML to manage spatio-temporal data efficiently in the mobile environment. The spatio-temporal query processing system based on GML can offer a structured storage method which maps a GML schema to a storage table and a binary XML storage method which uses the Fast Infoset technique, so as to support interoperability that is an important feature of GML and increase storage efficiency. we can also provide spatio-temporal operators for rapid query processing of spatio-temporal data of GML documents. In addition, we proved that this system can be utilized for the u-GIS service to implement a virtual scenario.

Rice crop has relatively short growing season during the summer in Korea and, therefore, it is often difficult to acquire cloud-free imagery on time. This study was attempt to define the temporal characteristics of radar backscattering observed from satellite L-band SAR data on different growing stages of rice crop. Six scenes of multi-temporal JERS SAR data were obtained from the transplanting season to the harvesting month of October. Six layers of multi-temporal SAR data were registered on a common geographic coordinate system. Using topographic maps, field collected data, and Landsat TM data, several sample rice fields were delineated from the imagery and their relative radar backscatters were calculated by using a set of reference targets. The temporal pattern of radar backscattering was very distinctive by the growing stage of rice crop. It was also separable between two types of rice fields having different cultivation practices. Considering the temporal characteristics of radar backscattering observed from the study, it is obvious that a certain date of the growing season can be more effective to delineate the exact area of the cultivated rice crop field.

The time information of sptio-temporal data in synchronization system of a mobile environment can be applied according to time data of various kinds. However, that previous data is synchronized related with progress of synchronization operation is a problem when saving the time data of sptio-temporal data depends on the registration time. In this paper, classifies the time used as time data for synchronization data, defines time data model suitable for synchronization of sptio-temporal data and suggests a synchronization system which uses time data model.

To overcome the limitation that traditional GISs lose much information for the real world, 4-dimensional GIS has the additional reference systems including object's height and temporal dimension. This paper describes the 4-dimensional geometric object model and components. The prototype for 4-dimensional GIS consists of the data provider, manager, and renderer components. We show the virtual city that its database contains topographic maps, buildings, roads and temporal history data. This provides spatial, temporal operations and analysis functions.

Agricultural land use generally shows specific temporal characteristics of NDVI obtained from satellite data. In terms of winter wheat, a higher value compared with other land use types in May and a considerably low value in June could be discriminative features of temporal change of NDVI. In this study, the author examined methods for estimating winter wheat sown area in sub-pixel level of coarse resolution satellite data using temporal characteristics of NDVI. Application of the methods to the major grain production area in China exhibited properly a spatial distribution pattern of winter wheat sown area.

With the rapid growth of the economy and fossil fuel consumption, the concentration of air pollutants has increased significantly and the air pollution problem is no longer limited to small areas. We conduct statistical analysis with the actual data related to air quality that covers the entire of South Korea using R and Python. Some factors such as SO₂, CO, O₃, NO₂, PM₁₀, precipitation, wind speed, wind direction, vapor pressure, local pressure, sea level pressure, temperature, humidity, and others are used as covariates. The main goal of this paper is to predict air quality index (AQI) spatio-temporal data. The observations of spatio-temporal big datasets like AQI data are correlated both spatially and temporally, and computation of the prediction or forecasting with dependence structure is often infeasible. As such, the likelihood function based on the spatio-temporal model may be complicated and some special modelings are useful for statistically reliable predictions. In this paper, we propose several methods for this big spatio-temporal AQI data. First, random effects with spatio-temporal basis functions model, a classical statistical analysis, is proposed. Next, neural networks model, a deep learning method based on artificial neural networks, is applied. Finally, random forest model, a machine learning method that is closer to computational science, will be introduced. Then we compare the forecasting performance of each other in terms of predictive diagnostics. As a result of the analysis, all three methods predicted the normal level of PM_2.5 well, but the performance seems to be poor at the extreme value.

Characteristics and patterns of geographic features and human activities can be interpreted in terms of spatiality and temporality. The necessity to record the historical changes and the ability to reason in the real world has lead to a new field of research so called Integrated Spatio-Temporal analysis. The objective of this study is to investigate temporal maps for Spatio-temporal analysis, which have the integration functionality for visualizing spatiality and temporality of the geographic appearances and human activities. Land information is composed of spatial, attribute and temporal data and requires spatio-temporal representations. It is possible to visualize spatio-temporal variations with spatio-temporal databases and temporal map produced by integrated data models. This study constructs spatio-temporal model for temporal maps of land price variation analysis. Taking advantage of the spatio-temporal model proposed here, it is possible to visualize spatio-temporal variations with spatio-temporal database and temporal map. On a practical level, this study would be extended and utilized to various geographic features.

A spatial object changes its states over time. However, existing spatial and temporal database systems cannot fully manage time-varying data with both spatial and non-spatial attributes. To overcome this limitation, we present a framework for spatio-temporal databases that can manage all time-varying historical information and integrate spatial and temporal relationship operators into the select statement in SQL3. For the purpose of our framework, we define three referencing macros and a history aggregate operator and classify the existing spatial and temporal relationship operators into three groups: exclusively spatial relationship operators, exclusively temporal relationship operators, and spatio-temporal common relationship operators. Finally, we believe the integration of spatial and temporal relationship operators into SQL3 will provide a useful framework for the history management of time-varying spatial objects in a uniform manner.

비디오 데이터의 중요한 면 중에 하나는 시간 관계성을 지닌다는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 비디오 데이터가 계층적 구조로 표현 가능하며, 각각의 계층은 각기 시간의 흐름에 따라 시간적 관계를 지닌다는 특성을 반영하여, 이러한 관계를 기반으로 하여, 비디오 계층적 구조에 대한 시간 관계성(video structure temporal relationship), 비디오 객체들 간의 시간 관계성(inter video-data temporal relationship), 비디오 객체내의 시간 관계성(intra video-data temporal relationship)를 제시한다. 이러한 비디오 데이터의 시간적 관계를 계승, 캡슐화, 함수 중복 등의 객체지향 특성을 이용한다. ORDBMS에 통합함으로써 다양한 시간 산자(temporal operator)를 제공한다. 이로써 사용자에게 편리하고 단일한 인터페이스와, 좀더 다양한 시간 질의어(temporal query)를 제공할 수 있는 메카니즘을 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.
