Multiple Representation for Geospatial Linked Data

Huang, Weiming LU ; Eidsson, Eidur and Harrie, Lars LU orcid (2018)
Abstract
Current techniques for visualising geospatial Linked Data are limited in terms of multiple representation, which has been studied for decades by cartographers and
considered as a prerequisite for deriving appropriate geovisualisation applications. In order to alleviate this issue, this paper presents a work in progress, in which the multiple representation geospatial data are released as Linked Data, and linked to the Linked Data gazetteer GeoNames. In the study, we use extended INSPIRE draft RDF vocabularies to explicitly link multiple representations and their visualisation scales. The results show that the released multiple representation geospatial Linked Data can effectively enrich the geometric information for the test data in... (More)
