AIM AND SCOPE

Environmental and more generally geo-spatial information is now provided by crowdsourcing but also by public administrations in the context of the open data policies. Analyses of such data are still challenging. Firstly because of their heterogeneity (structural, semantic, spatial and temporal), and secondly because of the difficulty in choosing the “best” knowledge discovery process to apply, according to the needs of the experts in the field. This special session aims at discussing and assessing some of these strategies covering all or part of the issues mentioned above, from a theoretical or experimental point of view.

TOPICS

- Pre and Post Data processing
- Data Quality, Result Evaluation
- Data Mining or Data Warehousing Applications
- Text Mining
- Visual Analytics
- KDD real use-cases

dedicated to environmental and geo-spatial Data
