A Bridge between Document Management System and Geographical Information System

  • Conference paper
Advanced Internet Based Systems and Applications (SITIS 2006)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 4879))

Abstract

The power of geographic information system is to help managers make critical decisions they face daily. The ability to make sound decisions relies upon the availability of relevant information. Typically, spatial databases do not contain much information that could support the decision making process in all situations. To extend the available dataset, we propose an approach for the enrichment of geographical databases (GDB) and especially their semantic component. This enrichment is performed by providing knowledge extracted from web documents to supplement the aspatial data of the GDB. The knowledge extraction process is reached through the generation of condensed representation of the relevant information derived from a web corpus. This process is carried out in a distributed fashion that complies with the multi-agents paradigm.
