Geographic Information Systems (GIS) do not allow the current management information to be changed continuously. The information value is assumed to be constant, and evolution occurs in a discrete manner depending explicitly requested changes to the system. The mobile agent can migrate autonomously to sites it deems interesting. This new approach has increased the applications robustness for distributed systems, ensuring the network load reduction, reliability and autonomy of components and performance.Our work is in the field of geographic information retrieval whose goal is to provide an approach to find and the acquisition of the relevant geographical information, using the agent paradigm.

“…This allows to distinguish several system states, and to update the functionality and data available to the user. In a previous work, several regions of significance have been defined to characterize the system at runtime [15]: -processing region(s) P x , where the procedures for the completion of a given task are available to the user, -broadcasting region(s) D x , where the concepts are available to the system, -user(s) region(s) U x , where the user is located, -source region(s) S x , where the concepts come from.…”

Abstract. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) have long bridged the gap between geo-information databases and applications. Although conceptual modelling approaches for GIS have been particularly successful in the representation of the specific properties of geographical information, there is still a need for a better integration of user intentions and usage. This paper introduces a conceptual framework applied to GIS and defined not only as a "Geographic Information System", but also as a "Geographic Interactive System". This approach extends the conceptual framework of a general purpose mobile interactive system to the geographical context. Beside a description of user tasks and the domain data layout, the proposed framework considers the geographical environment as an additional component to the design approach. The role of the spatial dimension in the design of such an interactive system is illustrated all along the conception of a real-time ship tracking system.

“…Moreover, the components constituting a service are distributed over space. Based on the definition of a distributed GIS given by Goodchild in (Longley et al, 2005), we introduce several regions of significance to characterize the geographical context associated to a given service i, accessed by a given user j at a given time t (Petit et al, 2006).…”

The research presented in this paper explores and models the interactions needed for the development of a collaborative and adaptive Geographical Information System (GIS). The proposed framework is based on a multi-dimensional contextual approach that makes the difference between the user, geographical and device contexts. The spatial distribution of the GIS functional components allows for the characterisation of different geographical context configurations. These configurations act as a support for the derivation of user groups. The interfaces and functionalities offered by the adaptive GIS are modeled at the group level, and derived from the interface usages and habits. The spatial behaviours that denote user experiences within a group are shared with other users within that group. Such an approach provides an adaptive and collaborative environment that favours exchanges and enrichments of the quality of services offered to the users acting in such a GIS environment. The framework is applied and experimented in the context of maritime navigation.
