NEW PUBLICATION FROM OUR GROUP!

NEW PUBLICATION FROM OUR GROUP!

Our latest paper, “Navigating Immovable Assets: A Graph-Based Spatio-Temporal Data Model for Effective Information Management” has been published in the ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information (IJGI)!

This research addresses the challenges of managing spatial and temporal data in asset management by introducing a graph-based spatio-temporal data model. Our approach integrates topological relationships and temporal sequences, using 3D city models and a NoSQL graph database to enhance asset management processes.

Key features include:

– A graph-based method for modeling building spaces using 3D data.

– A novel process model, Aggregated Directly-Follows Multigraph (ADFM), for temporal event management.

– Improved query efficiency and accuracy in managing complex asset data.

This work is a significant step forward in the field of geoinformatics and asset management, offering practical solutions for more effective decision-making.

LATEST RESEARCH ON SMART CITY FRAMEWORKS

LATEST RESEARCH ON SMART CITY FRAMEWORKS

Our latest conference paper, “Dimensions and Attributes of Smart City Framework: Systematic Literature Review,” which is now published in the Developments and Applications in SmartRail, Traffic, and Transportation Engineering series (ICSTTE 2023). This research provides a comprehensive evaluation of smart city frameworks, focusing on the dimensions and attributes that are crucial for developing intelligent and sustainable urban environments.

Our study reviewed literature from 2014 to 2020, analyzing smart city parameters such as suprastructure, infrastructure, and infostructure. We explored how these elements, along with intelligent government services, can be optimized to better serve society. Our findings highlight the need for improved infrastructure and smarter city facilities, with government prioritizing public infrastructure as a key factor in realizing smart cities.

This research contributes to a deeper understanding of the essential components that make up smart cities, providing a conceptual diagram that simplifies the smart urban concept for policymakers and urban planners.

FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING IN GEOSPATIAL SCIENCE

This is a photo from exactly seven years ago when I was testing an algorithm I developed to create stereo image from a single photo. The tested image on the left is the original. The image on the right shows the local extrema and minimal pixel intersection based on the code I wrote myself. This was done using the Haskell functional programming language, among the fastest programming method available today. This work was conducted in our Photogrammetry lab at the National Space Institute, Denmark.
