GIS AND DATA SCIENCE – A TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN

GIS AND DATA SCIENCE – A TWO SIDES OF THE SAME COIN

GIS and Data Science are essentially the same at their core, both involve analyzing and extracting insights from data.

The difference? GIS takes it a step further by adding location to the mix, transforming data into spatial data.

This extra layer of location allows us to visualize patterns, make more informed decisions, and solve complex challenges related to geography, urban planning, environment, and much more.

In other words, GIS = Data Science + Location, unlocking endless possibilities for spatial analysis.

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.
