地理空间语义

Geospatial Semantics

University of Tennessee(田纳西大学)

摘要:

地理空间语义学是一个广泛的领域,涉及到各种研究领域。术语语义学指的是事物的意义,与术语句法学相反。因此,地理空间语义学的研究通常侧重于理解地理实体的含义以及它们在认知和数字世界中的对应物,如认知地理概念和数字地名词典。地理空间语义还可以通过增强分布式系统的互操作性和开发更智能的用户交互接口来促进地理信息系统(GIS)的设计。在过去的几年里,人们从不同的角度,采用不同的方法,针对不同的问题,对地理空间语义进行了大量的研究。与此同时,大地理数据,特别是Web上大量非结构化文本数据的出现,以及自然语言处理方法的快速发展,使得地理空间语义研究出现了新的方向。因此,本章对现有的地理空间语义研究进行了系统的回顾。六个主要的研究领域进行了确定和讨论,包括语义互操作性,数字地名词典,地理信息检索,地理空间语义网,地方语义和认知地理概念。

英文摘要:

Geospatial semantics is a broad field that involves a variety of research areas. The term semantics refers to the meaning of things, and is in contrast with the term syntactics. Accordingly, studies on geospatial semantics usually focus on understanding the meaning of geographic entities as well as their counterparts in the cognitive and digital world, such as cognitive geographic concepts and digital gazetteers. Geospatial semantics can also facilitate the design of geographic information systems (GIS) by enhancing the interoperability of distributed systems and developing more intelligent interfaces for user interactions. During the past years, a lot of research has been conducted, approaching geospatial semantics from different perspectives, using a variety of methods, and targeting different problems. Meanwhile, the arrival of big geo data, especially the large amount of unstructured text data on the Web, and the fast development of natural language processing methods enable new research directions in geospatial semantics. This chapter, therefore, provides a systematic review on the existing geospatial semantic research. Six major research areas are identified and discussed, including semantic interoperability, digital gazetteers, geographic information retrieval, geospatial Semantic Web, place semantics, and cognitive geographic concepts.
