Dear technical search engine specialists, I am preparing a students semester project and I have the following question/proposition:
Do any ideas or plans exist for searching and indexing with geographic index/metadata? I am looking for a prototype which allows to narrow any keyword search (typically places or regions) with a geographical extent or vice versa, look for any resources falling inside a given geographical extent. Additionally I could imagine, that there are specialized sites, which publish structurized metadata (e.g. in RDF like the News-RDF/XML) which would allow a more structured (category) search. Any ideas or comments? Regards, Prof. Stefan F. Keller ______________________________________________________________________ University of Applied Sciences Rapperswil (UASR) - Eastern Switzerland int>e>gis - Center for integrated geographic information systems www.integis.ch >> UASR - The most beautiful campus in Switzerland -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
