The Apoala Project has been undertaken to develop an integrated spatio-temporal geographic information, visualization, and analysis system with the goal of supporting complex exploratory analysis of environmental data.
Two new papers: (1) Mennis, J.L., Peuquet, D.J. and Guo, D., Representing multiple levels of abstraction in GIS using object-oriented techniques, and (2) Peuquet, D.J. and Guo, D., Mining spatial data using an interactive rule-based approach, presented at GIScience 2000: The First International Conference on Geographic Information Science. Univerrsity of California Regents, Savannah, GA, Oct. 28-31, 2000
New Paper entitled: Collaborative Geographic Visualization: Enabling shared understanding of environmental processes, presented at the IEEE Information Visualization Symposium in Salt Lake City, Utah, Oct. 2000. Read it here first!

Apoala is composed of three primary interrelated research areas: (1) space-time database modeling and analysis techniques, (2) space-time visualization, and (3) parallel computing techniques. Although all three components of the project have independent utility, the principle contribution of this research will be the basis it establishes for building integrated Temporal Geographic Information and Visualization systems (TGIS/geovisualization) that will support a full range of environmental science and decision support applications.
