Welcome to IWGS 2011!
2nd ACM SIGSPATIAL International
Workshop on GeoStreaming (IWGS) 2011
November 1, 2011,
Chicago, Illinois, USA
Real-time stream data acquisition through sensors and imagery devices has been widely used in many applications. In addition to the temporal nature of stream data, various sources provide stream data that has geographical locations and/or spatial extents such as point coordinates, lines, or polygons. Thanks to advances in geosensing technologies, researchers in the geospatial community have been able to acquire huge amounts of streamed sensor data. The
growing volume of streamed data sources has contributed to advancing the state of the art in geographic information systems. However, the ability to process, mine, and analyze these massive collections of data in a timely manner has posed significant challenges to researchers attempting to make full use of the streamed data. The geostreaming term refers to the ongoing effort in academia and industry to process, mine and analyze stream data with geographic and spatial information.
This workshop addresses the research communities in both stream processing and geographic information systems. It brings together experts in the field from academia, industry and research labs to discuss the lessons they have learned over the years, to demonstrate what they have achieved so far, and to plan for the future of geostreaming.
