On Geospatial Agents

چکیده
As access to spatial and real-time data improves, the need for appropriate software tools has become prevalent. To develop geospatial applications in this context requires an approach to software architecture that helps developers evolve their solutions in flexible ways. Two concepts are today considered reasonable here – web services and agents. This paper presents generic geospatial agents in a prototype of agent development environment KRATT. Pilot applications are described and experience discussed.

GeoSEMA: A Modelling Platform, Emerging “GeoSpatial-based Evolutionary and Mobile Agents“
Spatial and mobile computing evolves. This paper describes a smart modeling platform called “GeoSEMA”. This approach tends to model multidimensional GeoSpatial Evolutionary and Mobile Agents. Instead of 3D and location-based issues, there are some other dimensions that may characterize spatial agents, e.g. discrete-continuous time, agent behaviors. GeoSEMA is seen as a devoted design pattern mo...

متن کاملMulti-Agent Systems for Distributed Geospatial Modeling, Simulation and Computing
AbstrAct Multi-agent system is specialized in studying the collective effects of multiple intelligent agents. An intelligent agent is a computer system with autonomous action in an environment. This technology is especially suitable for studying geospatial phenomena since they are complex in nature and call for intertwined actions from different forces. This chapter describes multi-agent system...
