Technological tools allow the generation of large volumes of data. For example satellite images aid in the study of spatio-temporal phenomena in a range of several disciplines, e.g. environment and health. Thus, remote-sensing experts must handle various and complex image sets for their interpretations. Additionally, the GIS community has heavily worked on describing spatio-temporal features, and standard specifications nowadays provide design foundations for GIS software and spatial databases. We argue that this spatio-temporal knowledge and expertise would provide invaluable support for the field of image interpretation. As a result, we propose a high level conceptual framework, based on existing and standardized approaches, offering enough modularity and adaptability for representing the various dimensions of spatio-temporal knowledge.Read the full paper here: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-642-33999-8_36
