Spatio temporal knowledge representation emergency

项目摘要

This proposal takes advantage of a valuable opportunity which has arisen at short notice: the availability of Professor Michael Worboys (University of Maine, USA) to be a visiting researcher at the School of Engineering, Computing, and Mathematics, University of Exeter in May - July 2010.The project brings together the expertise of Dr Antony Galton (Principal Investigator) in spatial and spatio-temporal knowledge representations and the expertise of Professor Worboys in the field of spatial information in order to address issues in knowledge representations associated with dynamic spatial phenomena, with application to the domain of emergency management and disaster response. An important feature of the project is the collaboration of Centre for Geospatial Science, University of Nottingham, and the Department of Geomatics, University of Melbourne, Australia, who will contribute expertise in the geoinformatics of disaster management complementary but closely related to this endeavour.In general terms there can be no doubt that effective emergency management, monitoring the nation's critical infrastructure and managing recovery in the case of a disaster, is extremely important for the national economy, public services, and for the health of citizens. Effective emergency management and disaster response can be significantly enhanced by the new sensor-based technologies that are coming on stream. However, sensor data from many heterogeneous sources, distributed in space and time, can only be effectively utilized if the foundations in informatics and knowledge representation are available to transform the data into information that is timely and meaningful to decision makers. It is towards this goal that the research in this proposed project makes a contribution.

该提议利用了一个宝贵的机会，该机会在短时间内引起了：迈克尔·沃博伊斯（Michael Worboys）（美国缅因州大学）的可用性是埃克塞特大学工程，计算机和数学学院的访问研究员，于2010年5月 - 2010年7月。空间信息的领域是为了解决与动态空间现象相关的知识表示中的问题，并适用于紧急管理和灾难响应的领域。该项目的一个重要特征是诺丁汉大学地理空间科学中心的合作，以及澳大利亚墨尔本大学地理学系，他们将在灾难管理的地理位置互补的地球信息学方面贡献专业知识，但与这一努力密切相关，但与该州的一般性毫无疑问，在国家的急诊管理中，对国家的疾病有效，对灾难进行了重要的疾病，对国家的疾病进行了重要的措施，对灾难进行了重要的疾病，以恢复对灾难的疾病，使其在疾病中恢复了重要的措施，使其在疾病中恢复了重要的疾病，该措施是恢复的，是该公司的重要措施。服务，以及公民的健康。即将出现的新的基于传感器的技术可以显着增强有效的应急管理和灾难响应。但是，只有在信息和知识表示中的基础可以将数据转换为对决策者及时有意义的信息时，才能有效地利用来自许多异构源的传感器数据，这些传感器数据只能有效地利用。正是为了实现这一目标，该拟议项目的研究做出了贡献。
