1. Overview
On completion of the dynamic
Geographic Knowledge Based Information Systems (dGKBIS) project (1994-1997) Frans Coenen
continued his research work in spatial reasoning. Especially quantitative spatial reasoning founded on a tesseral
representation. A number of "spin offs" from the dGKBIS project were i
vestigated, including:
- Spatial ontologies
- Maritime applications
- Building and architecture applications
- Rulebase V&V tools
- timetabling,
- Case Based Reasoning (CBR).
- Document and image analysis.
Frans Coenen still has a healthy interest in Spatial reasoning particularly
with respect to its potential application to Data Mining.
