With the availability of consumer GPS devices the amount of online location data publicly accessible are growing fast. Creating annotated photos or other resources with single location data is very common today. Moreover sharing of moving history data in the form of GPS tracks is becoming popular now. In this paper we analyze three leading services which provide GPS tracks for uploading, downlo...

fuzzy cognitive maps (fcms) have successfully been applied in numerous domains to show the relations between essential components in complex systems. in this paper, a novel learning method is proposed to construct fcms based on historical data and by using meta-heuristic: genetic algorithm (ga), simulated annealing (sa), and tabu search (ts). implementation of the proposed method has demonstrat...

Much local government has been using large scale digital maps with Geographic Information System (GIS). However, the updating method of a map is not established yet. The purpose of this study is the real-time renewal of the digital map for local government by collaboration of REAR TIME GIS and spatial data. In this study, spatial data means Remote Sensing imageries and Real-time Kinematic Globa...

Abstract Multi-fidelity modeling and calibration are data fusion tasks that ubiquitously arise in engineering design. However, there is currently a lack of general techniques can jointly fuse multiple sets with varying fidelity levels while also estimating parameters. To address this gap, we introduce novel approach that, using latent-map Gaussian processes (LMGPs), converts into latent space l...

Increasing availability of mobile devices with GPS receiver gives users the possibility to record and share a variety of location-based data, including GPS tracks. We describe a complete real-time system for acquisition, storage, querying, retrieval and visualization of GPS tracks. The main problems faced are how to store the data, how to access and how to visualize large amount of data. We pro...
