I'm looking for a project that I could contribute to as a C# (maybe Java)
developer.
In particular, I'm looking for something that focuses on ways to perform
flexible spatial joins with some degree of efficiency. The simplest case I'm
thinking of is where someone picks 2 or more database tables (associated with
location), and asks to see a combined table. No maps involved, just tables
(with the overlapping ground area thrown in if we're dealing with a
polygon/polygon overlay).
A more complex case would be a situation where someone wants to isolate an
area based on the attributes in database tables, but doesn't have any advance
idea of where to start looking. For example, I'm looking for a combination of
A+B+C that covers at least 1000 hectares, but I'm starting with a database that
covers the whole world. So to obtain some measure of efficiency, it would
presumably be nice to have access to relatedgeneralizations of the location
data.
Is anyone working on this sort of thing?
Steve
