This paper discusses the episodic nature of historical temporality, the narrative form of reasoning in history, and the value of using events as the basis for gazetteers in order to reflect the character of knowledge about historical places. It identifies the attributes of a historical event and introduces the idea that a historical event gazetteer must build networks of relationships among events in order to effectively represent historical narrative. It reviews relevant bodies of literature and proposes a procedure for identifying chronological, meteorological, and causal relationships among historical events. Finally, it suggests new directions in spatiotemporal visualization of history, with reference to a prototype developed by the authors.

Spatial Information Theory brings together three fields of research of paramount importance for geographic information systems technology, namely spatial reasoning, representation of space, and human understanding of space. The book contains 36 fully revised papers selected from a total of 78 submissions and gives a comprehensive state-of-the-art report on this exciting multidisciplinary - and highly interdisciplinary - area of research and development.

Temporal reasoning in cadastral systems / Khaled Al-Taha (1992)

Public Titre : Temporal reasoning in cadastral systems Titre original : [Raisonnement temporel dans les systèmes cadastraux] Type de document : Thèse/HDR Auteurs : Khaled Al-Taha, Auteur Editeur : Maine [Etats-Unis] : University of Maine Année de publication : 1992 Importance : 211 p. Format : 21 x 30 cm Note générale : Bibliographie Philosophy Doctorate Dissertation, Department of Surveying Engineering Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Cadastre numérique [Termes IGN] base de connaissances [Termes IGN] base de données foncières [Termes IGN] base de données temporelles [Termes IGN] cadastre [Termes IGN] enregistrement immobilier [Termes IGN] logique modale [Termes IGN] prototype [Termes IGN] raisonnement temporel [Termes IGN] relation topologique [Termes IGN] système d'information géographique Index. décimale : THESE Thèses et HDR Résumé : (auteur) Recently, temporal reasoning is getting more attention in GIS. From 1985 until the present, the number of research groups working on temporal GIS has noticeably increased. Yet, much research must still be done before temporal GIS become available. Information systems have to consider temporal data to answer queries that could not be answered otherwise, such as: "Which town had the greatest increase in population last year?" We believe that a detailed case study was necessary to determine the actual-reasoning structures and requirements in temporal GIS. Cadastral systems provide us with such an example. A cadastral system must include temporal data to answer queries as: "Who owned this house in 1988?" The goal of this thesis is to understand the reasoning powers in traditional cadastral systems better. We are studying the process of recording and inferring about rights in traditional cadastral systems to obtain the underlying logic-base. Once we understand how the reasoning is done in such systems, we can formalize their conceptual entities and operations. Temporal reasoning is necessary for knowledge-based cadastral systems that will make assertions and inferences to assist users in making their decisions more easily and reliably. To achieve this goal, we need to gain a clear understanding of the temporal aspects, rules and operations used in the reasoning about cadastral records. The objectives for achieving this goal are (1) to study and analyze the needed expressive power for temporal data in cadastral systems; (2) to identify and formalize the conceptual entities of a cadastral system; (3) to formalize, with a temporal logic, procedures for an intelligent search and to make inferences about temporal events in these systems; and (4) to prove the correctness of the concept by implementing a prototype. The major contribution of this study is to provide the different temporal reasoning powers in cadastral systems, to provide a formal description of the legal and topological reasoning in them, and to provide us with the temporal logic that is necessary for it.
