Geospatial proximity
by Chib, Sonia, M.S., THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT DALLAS, 2009, 75 pages; 1484443

Abstract:

Today, there are many enterprise applications that provide an end user with an abundance of information in a simple text format, but for a good user experience some applications use maps to convey location based information. Geospatial Proximity is a web based GIS application integrated with BlackBook that queries geographic datasets and shows the results on a Google Map. This project was conceptualized to provide a better user interface to dedicated users of the BlackBook application. BlackBook is a semantically enabled research framework funded by IARPA: Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity.
