Geoinformatics: Transforming data to knowledge for geosciences

Abstract: An integrative view of Earth as a system, based on multidisciplinary data, has become one of the most compelling reasons for research and education in the geosciences. It is now necessary to establish a modern infrastructure that can support the transformation of data to knowledge. Such an information infrastructure for geosciences is contained within the emerging science of geoinformatics, which seeks to promote the utilization and integration of complex, multidisciplinary data in seeking solutions to geoscie… Show more

“…"Web 2.0" developments have facilitated user contributions and interactions (O'Reilly, 2005) and these methods are now available for scientific applications (e.g. Henning and Reichelt, 2008;Ullrich et al, 2008;Sinha et al, 2010) and to industry (McAfee, 2006). These techniques have been incorporated to involve the user through tags and comments, and by interlinking items and uploading material.…”

“…La geoinformática es una disciplina emergente que contempla el estudio de los recursos naturales, estructura de datos, almacenaje, manejo, análisis, integración y presentación de información geoespacial (Flores, 2004;Prakash, 2006). Se apoya en métodos y técnicas de la geodesia y el insumo de diversos tipos de datos (geográficos, espaciales, geológicos, biológicos, geofísicos, etcétera), a través de un enfoque integrativo en el análisis, modelado, gestión y almacenaje de éstos (Mankari et al, 2010;Sinha et al, 2010). Esta disciplina es ampliamente usada para el descubrimiento de nuevos conocimientos a través de un enfoque holístico de la información de las ciencias de la tierra, naturales y sociales, respectivamente (Prakash, 2006;Sinha et al, 2010).…”

La geoinformática está ligada a tres herramientas cardinales: los sistemas de información geográficos (sig), la teledetección y el sistema de posicionamiento global (gps).…”

“…In scientific research contexts, the users of geospatial data to be acquired from global, national, or regional sources face both practical and theoretical challenges regarding the production of knowledge [4]. Among these, a major issue is locating the best data sources with guarantees of quality and appropriateness for a specific use, because the selection of the data source (s) has an impact on the quality of the results.…”
