Classification of spatiotemporal models based on implicit and explicit expressions
Shen Ying · Engineering Journal of Wuhan University · 2008
A classification scheme for spatiotemporal data model is put forward according to the representation approaches used to organize spatiotemporal data.The spatiotemporale model is composed of the spatiotemporal object and the spatiotemporal relationship.The spatiotemporal object is described with the event and state;and the spatiotemporal relationship is described with the relationships between events,between states,between event and state.The spatiotemporal representation is described with implicit,explicit,half-implicit or half-explicit expressions.The classification scheme is presented with the spatiotemporal object,the spatiotemporal relationship and the spatiotemporal representation.This work is regarded as a guide and consults for consequent modeling.
