Use of the SAND spatial browser for digital government applications

Abstract: Numerous federal agencies produce official statistics made accessible to ordinary citizens for searching and data retrieval. This is frequently done via the Internet through a Web browser interface. If this data is presented in textual formatT T he SAND Spatial Browser is part of the SAND System whose server side contains a spatial database system that facilitates organization (that is, indexing) of spatial and nonspatial data [1] to support efficient query processing. This database system handles any two or h… Show more

“…Furthermore, answering queries using a repository of spreadsheets and HTML tables is an exciting venue for future work, as it involves query processing over noisy tabular data. We intend to explore the application of our technique to systems for joining Web tables, focusing on the common case where geographic tables contain spatial attributes [10,20,21] using both textual [7] and spatial [11] join techniques.…”

“…The VASCO system can be found at http://www.cs.umd.edu/˜hjs/quadtree/. For an example of their use in a spatial database/geographic information system (GIS), see the SAND Spatial Browser (Brabec and Samet, 2007;Esperança and Samet, 2002;Samet et al, 2003) and the QUILT system . Such systems find use in a number of alternative application domains (e.g., digital government (Marchionini et al, 2003)).…”

“…Our proposed setup is very desirable from a systems point of view because, now, all operations can be performed in the context of a database system. Our work opens up the use of a commercial database for building interactive applications (e.g., GIS applications [32]) on spatial networks. The real success of our method lies not so much in being able to succinctly capture the n 2 network distances in a spatial network using only OðnÞ space, but rather in the ability of our oracle construct to be seamlessly integrated into a relational database system, indexed using a traditional indexing scheme (e.g., B-tree), and used in complicated query processing scenarios without making any significant changes to existing database systems.…”
