From GPS and virtual globes to spatial computing - 2020

Abstract

Spatial computing is a set of ideas, solutions, tools, technologies, and systems that transform our lives with a new prospect of understanding, navigating, visualizing and using locations. In this community whitepaper, we present a perspective on the changing world of spatial computing, research challenges and opportunities and geoprivacy issues for spatial computing. First, this paper provides an overview of the changing world of spatial computing. Next, promising technologies that resulted from the integration of spatial computing in the everyday lives of people is discussed. This integration results with promising technologies, research challenges and opportunities and geoprivacy issues that must be addressed to achieve the potential of spatial computing.

“…Twitter has been chosen for this study due to the reason that this social media platform exceeds 28 million active users in Turkey which is one-quarter of the total population of the country (Statista, 2016). As a consequence of the number of users (participators), platforms provide the excessive data source for participation projects which is supported by unconscious volunteers (Gulnerman et.al, 2016;Shekhar, 2015).…”

A Realidade Aumentada Na Apresentação De Produtos Cartográficos

“…O uso e as potencialidades dos globos virtuais e da realidade virtual na representação e percepção da realidade geográfica estão bem documentados na literatura recente, principalmente nas áreas do conhecimento que lidam com dados espaciais (Bailey e Chen, 2011;Bodenhamer, 2014;Harwood et al, 2015;Shekhar et al, 2015). No entanto, estudos que buscam discutir as potencialidades da Realidade Aumentada (RA) na cartografia, inserindo o uso desta tecnologia no âmbito da visualização cartográfica, são mais escassos.…”
