TIME-GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SCIENCE: A WORKSHOP ON TIME-GEOGRAPHY
GIScience 2012 Conference
Columbus, OH, USA – 18 September 2012
Enabled by new (geo)computational techniques and approaches, we are currently witnessing a resurgence of interest in both research papers as well as project methodologies that draw on the original concepts and theories from Time-Geography. This event aims to bring together researchers applying Time-Geographic concepts in their research in the multidisciplinary context of GIScience.
Topics of this workshop include, but are not limited to:
- Analytical extensions of the Time-Geographic framework
- Innovative Time-Geographic methods addressing the problems of movement, transport and interaction
- Scalability – how to operationalise aggregation and generalisation of space-time paths
- Spatio-temporal data models for implementing Time-Geographic approaches
- GIS-based methods for comparison of multiple space-time paths which explicitly consider spatial and temporal dimensions
- Data sources (including VGI), data quality/resolution issues, and ‘models vs. real-world data’
- Visualization of voluminous spatio-temporal data sets and their interpretation
- Interactive approaches addressing any of the above
