Textual data is available to an increasing extent through different media (social networks, companies data, data catalogues, etc.). New information extraction methods are needed since these new resources are highly heterogeneous. In this article, we propose a text matching process based on spatial features and assessed through heterogeneous textual data. Besides being compatible with heterogeneous data, it comprises two contributions: first, spatial information is extracted for comparison purposes and subsequently stored in a dedicated spatial textual representation (STR); and then two transformations are applied on STR to improve the spatial similarity estimation. This article outlines the proposed approach with new contributions: (i) a new geocoding methods using general co-occurrences between entities, and (ii) a thorough evaluation followed by (iii) an in-depth discussion. The results obtained on two corpora demonstrate that good spatial matches (≈ 80% precision on major criteria) can be obtained between the most similar STRs with further enhancement achieved via STR transformation.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
