Rethinking Engagement: Innovations in How Humanitarians Explore Geoinformation
When humanitarian workers embark on learning and dialogue for linking geoinformation to disaster management, the activities they confront are usually more difficult than interesting. How to accelerate the acquisition and deployment of skills and tools for spatial data collection and analysis, given the increasingly unmanageable workload of humanitarians? How to engage practitioners in experienc...
متن کاملLogical Foundations for Similarity-Based Databases
Extensions of relational databases which aim at utilizing various aspects of similarity and imprecision in data processing are widespread in the literature. A need for development of solid foundations for such extensions, sometimes called similarity-based relational databases, has repeatedly been emphasized by leading database experts. This paper argues that, contrary to what may be perceived f...
متن کاملMethodology for Measuring the Demand Geoinformation Transaction Costs: Based on Experiments in Berlin, Vienna and Zurich
Searching for geo-information and inquiring about the conditions of exchange involves transaction costs. Neoclassical economy neglects the existence of these costs and therefore lacks economic models which could be applied to geoinformation. We are interested in establishing theoretical foundations of transaction costs related to geo-information and in methods which could help to quantify these...
متن کاملFoundations of Relational Dynamics
Relational particle dynamics include the dynamics of pure shape and cases in which absolute scale or absolute rotation are additionally meaningful. These are interesting as regards the absolute versus relative motion debate as well as discussion of conceptual issues connected with the problem of time in quantum gravity. In spatial dimension 1 and 2 the relative configuration spaces of shapes ar...
