Progress in Spatial Data Handling

Since the first symposium in 1984 the International Symposia on Spatial Data Handling (SDH) has become a major resource for recent advances in GIS research. The International Symposium on Spatial Data Handling is regarded as a premier international research forum for GIS. All papers are fully reviewed by an international program committee composed of experts in the field.

Universal Ontology of Geographic Space: Semantic Enrichment for Spatial Data

A universal approach to the ontology of geographic space has already been, and is going to be, a comprehensive task for establishing more effective spatial models. The concept of a universal spatial ontology should be independent of location, culture, and time. It should be fundamental and universal in the same way that the number p defines the ratio between the diameter and the circumference of a circle. The term “universal” therefore means all-embracing and for general propose. Universal Ontology of Geographic Space: Semantic Enrichment for Spatial Data aims to escalate the current scope of research to support the development of semantically interoperable systems of geographic space. This reference will aid university lecturers and professors, students, researchers, developers of spatial applications.

  • Publisher: Založba ZRC

Monografija, deseta po vrsti, v 34 znanstvenih in strokovnih prispevkih predstavlja presek trenutnega stanja uporabe geografskih informacijskih sistemov (GIS) v Sloveniji. GIS-i nudijo odlično priložnost za interdisciplinarno sodelovanje. Tako se znanje posamezne vede bogati z dognanji sorodnih ved, kar omogoča nadaljnji razvoj posameznih strok ter sinergijske učinke v iskanju rešitev za porajajoče se probleme. V desetih knjigah Geografski informacijski sistemi v Sloveniji je bilo skupaj objavljenih 294 prispevkov na skoraj tritisoč straneh.

Monografija, že deveta po vrsti, v kar 42 znanstvenih in strokovnih prispevkih predstavlja presek trenutnega stanja uporabe geografskih informacijskih sistemov (GIS) v Sloveniji. V monografiji je predstavljana cela vrsta možnosti njihove uporabe, saj je tri četrtine prispevkov z aplikativno vsebino. Predstavljena je možnost njihove uporabe v geografiji, geologiji, geodeziji, kartografiji, pedologiji, biologiji, gozdarstvu, gradbeništvu, vodarstvu, pa tudi v dialektologiji, arheologiji, zgodovini, pri preučevanju kulturne dediščine in naravnih nesreč, ter pri prostorskem načrtovanju. Z GIS-i prostor vse bolj vstopa v številne znanosti, ki s pomočjo novih tehnoloških prijemov preučevane procese prostorsko umestijo in s tem dodajo novo dodano vrednost, ki je v preteklosti le izjemoma prišla do izraza.

Virtual Archaeology

The VAST conference brought together a large number of scholars working with or researching virtual reality in archaeology, a subject which also includes 3D modelling, computer visualisation and GIS for example. This volume publishes the papers given at the 2000 conference and covers a broad range of scientific and virtual cultural research, with case studies from the ancient Near East, Cumae near Naples, a prehistoric cave in Lecce (Italy), historic Bologna, and Pompeii among others. The papers are all in English and can also be found on the accompanying CD-Rom.

Kant and the Metaphors of Reason

In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat die Metapher in der Philosophie zunehmend Beachtung gefunden und wurde zu einem zentralen Thema, mit dem Kant sich in seiner kritischen Philosophie in Begriffen von Analogie und Symbolisierung beschäftigt. Sein Beitrag zur Entwicklung unseres Verständnisses der Rolle, die Bilder, Metaphern und Symbole in theoretischer und praktischer Hinsicht leisten, ist bedeutend; zudem ist Kant selber auch als Schöpfer von Metaphern weithin bekannt. Symbole, Analogien und ästhetische Ideen sind unleugbar metaphorische Verfahren, die eine ebenso grundlegende wie systematische Funktion in Kants philosophischer Sprache einnehmen. – Dieser Sammelband ist das Ergebnis e...

Quantifying the Present and Predicting the Past

One of the more interesting developments in the field of archaeology in the recent past is the emergence of predictive modeling as an integral component of the discipline. Within any developing and expanding field, one may expect some initial controversy that will, presumably, diminish as the techniques are tested, refined, and finally accepted. We are still very much in the initial stages of learning how to go about using predictive modeling in archaeology, and this book represents an effort by some of the leading experts in the field to present a comprehensive and detailed examination of this approach to understanding how people in the past used the landscape in which they lived.

Learning from Data

An interdisciplinary framework for learning methodologies—covering statistics, neural networks, and fuzzy logic, this book provides a unified treatment of the principles and methods for learning dependencies from data. It establishes a general conceptual framework in which various learning methods from statistics, neural networks, and fuzzy logic can be applied—showing that a few fundamental principles underlie most new methods being proposed today in statistics, engineering, and computer science. Complete with over one hundred illustrations, case studies, and examples making this an invaluable text.

This set of papers by European and North American archaeologists explore the interface between new spatial technologies and areas of theoretical concern in spatial archaeology. Differing aspects of landscape, such as vision, perception and movement, are explored through a series of case studies that focus on how spatial technologies can influence archaeological interpretation and to what extent these new technologies can be manipulated to take us beyond 2-dimensional maps. Individual site-based analyses and new applications of predictive modelling are also presented and assessed together with the wider questions of spatial technologies within heritage management.
