In this paper, we deal with the integration of multiple sources of information such as Earth observation (EO) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images and their metadata, semantic descriptors of the…
Lots of Earth Observation data has become available at no charge in Europe and the US recently and there is a strong
push for more open EO data. Open EO data that are currently made available by…
In the last few years, thanks to projects like TELEIOS, the linked open data cloud has been rapidly populated with geospatial data some of it describing Earth Observation products (e.g., CORINE Land…

Advances in remote sensing technologies have allowed us to send an ever-increasing number of satellites in orbit around Earth. As a result, Earth Observation data archives have been constantly…
We study the problem of distributed resource sharing in peer-to-peer networks and focus on the problem of information ltering. In our setting, subscriptions and publications are specied using an…

Geospatial extensions of SPARQL like GeoSPARQL and stSPARQL have recently been dened and corresponding geospatial RDF stores have been implemented. However, there is no widely used benchmark for…
We present SexTant, a Web-based system for the visualization and exploration of time-evolving linked geospatial data and the creation, sharing, and collaborative editing of \temporally-enriched"…
Strabon is a very scalable and ecient RDF store for storing and querying geospatial data that changes over time. We present the geospatial and temporal features of Strabon and we demonstrate their…
In this paper, we propose the problem of implementing an efficient query processing system for incomplete temporal and geospatial information in RDFi as a challenge to the SSTD community. For the…
We extend RDF with the ability to represent property values that exist, but are unknown or partially known, using constraints. Following ideas from the incomplete information literature, we develop…
In large companies such as Siemens and Statoil monitoring tasks are of great importance, e.g., Siemens does monitoring of turbines and Statoil of oil behaviour in wells. This tasks bring up…
We introduce the temporal component of the stRDF data model and the stSPARQL query language, which have been recently proposed for the representation and querying of linked geospatial data that…
The Optique European project aims at providing an end-to-end solution for scalable access to Big Data integration, where end users will formulate queries based on a familiar conceptualization of…
Linked geospatial data has recently received attention as researchers and practitioners have started tapping the wealth of geospatial information available on the Web. With the rapid population of…
In this paper we present the EU Optique project that aims at developing an end-to-end OBDA system for managing Big Data in industries.We discuss limitations of state of the art OBDA systems and…
We present a real-time wildre monitoring service that exploits satellite images and linked geospatial data to detect
hotspots and monitor the evolution of re fronts. The service makes heavy use…
In this paper, we study the problem of distributed RDFS reasoning over structured overlay networks. Distributed RDFS reasoning is essential for providing the functionality that Semantic Web and…

We present Strabon, a new RDF store that supports the state of the art semantic geospatial query languages stSPARQL and GeoSPARQL. To illustrate the expressive power oered by these query languages…
Linked geospatial data has recently received attention, as researchers and practitioners have started tapping the wealth of geospatial information available on the Web. Incomplete geospatial…
We consider chordal RCC-8 networks and show that we can check their consistency by enforcing partial path consistency
with weak composition. We prove this by using the fact that RCC-8 networks…
TELEIOS is a recent European project that addresses the need for scalable access to petabytes of Earth Observation data and the discovery of knowledge that can be used in applications. To achieve…
TELEIOS is a recent European project that addresses the need for scalable access to petabytes of Earth Observation data and the discovery of knowledge that is hidden in them. TELEIOS builds on…

Many XML filtering systems have emerged in recent years identifying XML data that structurally match XPath queries in an efficient way. However, apart from structural matching, it is considered…
News Archives constitute an important source for historians, both for research and educational purposes. However, access to their material is not easy due to the special characteristics of the…

We present a novel approach for filtering XML documents using nondeterministic finite automata and distributed hash tables. Our approach differs architecturally from recent proposals that deal with…
