Summary:
Georeferenced information is crucial for predicting events, monitoring disasters, and planning sustainable development. Our primary goal in this project is to develop and integrate intelligent decision support, system and visualization system for knowledge discovery and decision making with georeferenced information. We will focus on develop and novel methods in data mining and knowledge discovery in spatial data sets to further strengthen our capability in seeking underlying structures and relationships in data pertinent to decision making. The system capability will be further enhanced by the realistic, high-resolution and consistent model of a geographic site using as wide a range of information sources as possible. The environmental information will be seemlessly fused with other types of digital sources, which creates the virtual space for advanced decision making based on explosive visualization.
