Spatial information theory: foundations of geographic information science : international conference, COSIT 2001, Morro Bay, CA, USA, September 19-23, 2001 : proceedingsSpringer, 2001 - Science - 502 pages This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory, COSIT 3001, held in Morro Bay, CA, USA in September 2001. The 30 revised full papers presented together with three full keynote papers were carefully reviewed and selected from more than 70 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on geographical ontology and onthologies; qualitative spatio-temporal reasoning; formalizations of human spatial cognition; space, cognition, and information systems; human and machine approaches to navigation; language and space; and cognitive mapping. |

LessPopular passagesPage 25 - The fact is that around 1910 a certain space was shattered. It was the space of common sense, of knowledge (savoir), of social practice, of political power, a space thitherto enshrined in everyday discourse, just as in abstract thought, as the environment of and channel for communications; the space, too, of classical perspective and geometry, developed from the Renaissance onwards on the basis of the Greek tradition (Euclid, logic) and bodied forth in Western art and philosophy, as in the form of... Page 19 - We can imagine those rays to be like the finest hairs of the head, or like a bundle, tightly bound within the eye where the sense of sight has its seat. The rays, gathered together within the eye, are like a stalk; the eye is like a bud which extends its shoots rapidly and in a straight line to the plane opposite.17 Among these rays there are differences in strength and function which must be recognized.

Path properties 14. state of continuity (unbroken / saltatory) 15. contour of path 16. state of boundedness (bounded / unbounded) 17. length of path 18. vertical height 19. horizontal distance from signer 20. left-right positioning 2 1 . up-down... Page 18 - I call a sign anything that exists on a surface so that it is visible to the eye. No one will deny that things which are not visible do not concern the painter, for he strives to represent only the things that are seen. Points joined together continuously in a row constitute a line. So for us a line will be a sign whose length can be divided into parts, but it will be so slender in width that it cannot be split. Page 127 - An agent is anything that can be viewed as perceiving its environment through sensors and acting upon that environment through effectors...
