Trajectory data processing: Spatial computing meets information retrieval

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to develop multi-stage retrieval systems which leverage structured and unstructured data processing to efficiently and effectively search spatial, temporal and textual data collections. Search in heterogeneous data collections is an important research problem. In particular, spatial computing is a growth area as the quantity and quality of GPS data collected in multiple domains has significantly increased in recent years. Possible benefits from research advances derived from this project include disaster/event recognition and monitoring, monitoring of endangered species, farming and agriculture to increase crop yields and reduce cost, and minimising fuel consumption and greenhouse-gas emissions.
