Approximate Query Answering Based on Topological Neighborhood and Semantic Similarity in OpenStreetMap

IEEE Access, 2020
In this paper we focus on a pictorial query language, referred to as Geographical Pictorial Query Language (GeoPQL), and we revise its formal semantics by considering the polygon-polyline, polyline-polyline, and polygon-polygon topological relationships.

Multi-Parameter Estimation of Average Speed in Road Networks Using Fuzzy Control

ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Average speed is crucial for calculating link travel time to find the fastest path in a road network. However, readily available data sources like OpenStreetMap (OSM) often lack information about the average speed of a road.

Predicting building types using OpenStreetMap

Scientific Reports, 2022
AbstractHaving accurate building information is paramount for a plethora of applications, including humanitarian efforts, city planning, scientific studies, and navigation systems. While volunteered geographic information from sources such as OpenStreetMap (OSM) has good building geometry coverage, descriptive attributes such as the type of a building ...
