Abstract

With the advance of the Web technologies, people can more easily access the geographic information and generate various types of user contents including geo-information on the Web. Consequently, geo-web and geo-communities have been infrastructures to share and connect information on the Web for many years, and people start to describe a specific phenomenon on places by own representation methods such as text, images, videos, etc. In this demonstration, we introduce a new type of location-based services, called Sticker, which can search and aggregate the relevant user generated contents/media to moving phenomena such as hurricanes, flooding, and global warming. In particular, the Sticker navigates user-generated contents with three dimensional view of space-time(2D+1D) and allows users to retrieve related information with the moving phenomena in a spatiotemporal domain as well as interesting keywords.
