Abstract

This paper proposes design of a description model for location information (DMLI) to solve problems of different standards according to different location-data type from various positioning systems. DMLI does not redefine metadata of location data expressed by different types, but is a classification model that includes metadata including all the types. DMLI is composed of facility, place, and service elements. DMLI can translate metadata element about existing location-data into its own metadata element using a dictionary that defines information between metadata elements related location. This study shows interoperability of DMLI between heterogeneous metadata, and adoptability of DMLI to various location-based applications for service such as searching, statistics, etc
