講座內(nèi)容：Huge volumes of hybrid spatial informationare being capturedfrom sensors and extracted from web documents and socialmedia every day. Ourresearch aims to process massive hybrid spatial informationin an integrativeand efficient way. In this talk, we summarise some of mostrecent progresses,as reported in the following articles:
