Abstract

The interpretation of spatial activities plays a fundamental role in several areas, ranging from the analysis of animal behaviour to location-based assistance applications. One important aspect when interpreting spatial activities consists in relating them to their environment. A problem arises insofar propositional representations lack an appropriate attention mechanism to comprehend the spatiotemporal development of spatial activities. Therefore, we propose a diagrammatic formalism which allows spatial activities to get classified depending on their spatial context and provide a link to propositional formalisms. It shows that RoboCup soccer is particularly suitable for investigating these issues. In fact, alone the spatial activity of the ball teaches us to a considerable degree much about a game.
