A Contextual Approach for the Development of GIS: Application to Maritime Navigation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The research presented in this paper introduces the principles of a multi-dimensional contextual approach for adaptive GIS. The framework makes the difference beetween the user, geographical and device contexts. The geographical context is modelled according to the location of the user, the region of interest, the extent of the region covered by the diffusion of the data, and the place where the information is processed. This characterization allows for the study of the different contextual configurations, and their impact on the design of mobile services. The framework is applied to maritime navigation.

A user context approach for adaptive and distributed GIS
The research presented in this paper introduces a user context approach for collaborative and adaptive Geographical Information System (GIS). The proposed model is part of a framework based on a multi-dimensional contextual approach that combines user, geographical and device contexts. The spatial properties of the GIS components categorize different configurations as a support for the derivati...
متن کاملThe Development of a Dynamic Gis for Maritime Navigation Safety
Maritime safety has a huge impact on the world economy and our everyday lives. The vast majority of world cargo is carried by sea by huge container-carriers. Cargo ships carrying hazardous loads pose serious threats to the environment. The disaster and damage caused in the event of major sea collisions can be difficult and costly to deal with. In our research we took a broad look at the problem...
