Keyword Search on Spatial Databases
2008 IEEE 24th International Conference on Data Engineering, 2008Many applications require finding objects closest to a specified location that contains a set of keywords. For example, online yellow pages allow users to specify an address and a set of keywords. In return, the user obtains a list of businesses whose description contains these keywords, ordered by their distance from the specified address.

Navigation of the Internet with spatial databases
Proceedings 1999 International Symposium on Database Applications in Non-Traditional Environments (DANTE'99) (Cat. No.PR00496), 2003Most Internet search engines are keyword based. They are not efficient for the queries where geographical location is important, such as finding hotels close to a place of interest. A natural interface for spatial searching is a map, which can be used not only to display locations of search results but also to assist forming search conditions.

Communicating uncertainty in spatial databases
Transactions in GIS, 1996As applications of spatial databases become more sophisticated and diverse, an issue of growing concern is the inability to communicate to users the uncertainty of products derived from their systems. This is important not only because users should be able to compare the quality of database outputs against the quality requirements of their tasks (in ...

2007
Spatial database research has continued to advance greatly since three decades ago, addressing the growing data management and analysis needs of spatial applications. This research has produced a taxonomy of models for space, conceptual models, spatial query languages and query processing, spatial file organization and indexes, and spatial data mining.

Spatial Indexing for Video Databases
Journal of Visual Communication and Image Representation, 1996Abstract Spatial reasoning techniques based on 2D string systems have been successfully applied to indexing pictorial databases. We demonstrate how similar techniques may be extended to represent video sequences, and how this representation may be compressed. Query schemes for both single frame queries, and full subsequence queries are presented. The

Watermarking Spatial Trajectory Database
2005Protection of digital assets from piracy has received increasing interests where sensitive, valuable data need to be released. This paper addresses the problem of watermarking spatial trajectory database. The formal definition of the problem is given and the potential attacks are analyzed.

Spatial database access methods
ACM SIGMOD Record, 1991In the discussion of research issues in spatial databases (SIGMOD Record vol. 19, no. 4, Dec 1990) we stated the need for a robust framework for analytical comparison of a broad range of spatial access methods. The utility of such a comparison, even of very closely related access methods, was shown in [FALO87]. A necessary precondition for a meaningful

Spatial Browsing for Video Databases
1999Time-series description data concerning a camera are expected to be automatically generated by various sensors in the near future, such as a camera's time-series positions, directions and zoom ratios so as to provide a rich environment for retrieving and browsing video data spatially.

Concurrency control of spatial join on spatial database
Fourth Annual ACIS International Conference on Computer and Information Science (ICIS'05), 2005For the process of spatial data, in addition to the basic operations of insertion, deletion, update, and search, there are some special operations such as nearest neighbor search, spatial join, etc. Hung et al. proposed an algorithm based on an R-tree to perform the operation of spatial join for spatial objects. However, this algorithm is only suitable
