The Relationship among GIS-Oriented Spatiotemporal Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
We overview three major types of GIS-oriented spatiotemporal databases: (1) point-based, (2) region-based, and (3) constraint-based. We analyze the relationship among these spatiotemporal databases and show how they can be translated into each other. We illustrate the translations with an example from National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) databases. Finally, we also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using the various types of spatiotemporal databases.

Voronoi Region-Based Spatiotemporal GIS Databases
The use of Voronoi diagrams in GIS-oriented spatiotemporal databases is considered. The Voronoi algorithms generate appropriate meshes for data interpolation. We illustrate the data representation in this database generated from a point-based spatiotemporal relation in the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) database.
متن کاملFormal transformation of spatiotemporal data from object-oriented database to XML
With the rapid development of the Internet, XML (Extensible Markup Language) is increasingly gaining acceptance as a medium for integrating and exchanging data. Meanwhile, object-oriented database has a strong ability to store data, XML can benefit greatly and specifically from database support and object-oriented database management system. Consequently, it is significant to exchange data from...
متن کاملWorking with Spatio-temporal Data Type
Several aspects of spatiotemporal databases have been explored in past decades, ranging from basic data structure to query processing and indexing. But today, operational temporal GIS does not exist. The key impediments have been the complexity of integrating space and time and the lack of standards. OpenGIS standards for simple feature access (spatial type) do exist, but unlike the spatial typ...
متن کاملOperators for Cell Tuple-based Spatiotemporal Data Model
A spatiotemporal data model consists of attributes or classes, operations, and consistency constraints. Various models have been proposed by the geographic information system (GIS) community. These models could not be implemented because of various reasons. One of the reasons is that these models lack completeness and remain limited to the classes. This paper discusses the dynamic operators for...
