Uncertainty in Spatiotemporal Databases

چکیده
Several different models for spatial indeterminacy have been presented. However, none of them are to the authors’ knowledge capable of modelling spatiotemporal information. This paper will describe a way to extend a model for uncertain spatial data so that it also handles spatiotemporal data. This paper will also look at many of the operations for spatiotemporal data and see how well they translate to the uncertain case. The operations are defined mathematically for a model for uncertain spatial data by the same authors.

A Discrete Model for Spatial Data with Temporal Uncertainty
This paper builds on earlier works on vector-based discrete models for uncertainty in spatial databases. It extends these models so that they are also capable of modelling spatiotemporal data. The extension is based on the idea of time slices, which have been used in [1] to create a model for normal spatiotemporal data. The new extension deals with how to model spatial uncertainty in spatiotemp...
متن کاملThe Nature of Uncertainty in Historical Geographic Information
While the presence of uncertainty in the geometric and attribute aspects of geographic information is well known, it is also present in temporal information. In spatiotemporal GIS databases and other formal representations, uncertainty in all three aspects of geography (space, time, and theme) must often be modeled, but a good data model must first be based on a sound theoretical understanding ...
متن کاملAn integrated framework for managing sensor data uncertainty using cloud computing
In recent years, an increasing number of data-intensive applications deal with continuously changing data objects (CCDOs), such as data streams from sensors and tracking devices. In these applications, the underlying data management system must support new types of spatiotemporal queries that refer to the spatiotemporal trajectories of the CCDOs. In contrast to traditional data objects, CCDOs h...
متن کاملRangeandnearestneighborquerieson Uncertain Spatiotemporal Data
Uncertain data are abundant in numerous spatiotemporal applications providing location-based services. This chapter will first review these applications and explain why uncertainty is inherent, sometimes even intended, in their underlying data. Then, we will address two classical spatial queries: range search and nearest neighbor retrieval. We will see that the presence of uncertainty requires ...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal Variations of Total Cloud Cover and Cloud Optical Thickness in Iran
A knowledge of cloud properties and spatiotemporal variations of clouds is especially crucial to understand the radiative forcing of climate. This research aims to study cloudiness in Iran using the most recent satellite data, powerful databases, and regional and seasonal analyses. In this study, three data series were used for the spatiotemporal variations of cloudiness in the country: A) Clou...
