REPORT


Temporal Indexing

knowledge discovery in databases, research in spatiotemporal modeling and visualization has attracted much attention in GIScience. Computational models in geography, traditionally Monte Carlo simulation and Markov chain, have been rapidly expanded in recent years to cellular automata, agent-based modeling, and evolutionary algorithms [15]. In summary, research in temporal GIS and applications has grown over the last two decades. Many fundamental concepts about time and time properties have been discussed in depth in both GIScience and computer science literature. Significant progress has been made in conceptual development as well as in case studies in different application domains. Research emphases have shifted from the space-centered map paradigm to ways of integrating space and time for a richer representation of geographic dynamics. The many challenges and opportunities ahead call for improved communication, more robust theoretical and reasoning frameworks, and more powerful and friendly methods for information query, analysis, modeling and visualization.
