Geo-Situation for Modeling Causality of Geo-Events in Knowledge Graphs

원문 초록

This paper proposes a framework for representing and reasoning causality between geographic events by introducing the notion of Geo-Situation. This concept links to observational snapshots that represent sets of conditions, and either acts as the setting of a geo-event or influences the initiation of a geo-event. We envision the use of this framework within knowledge graphs that represent geographic entities will help answer the important question of why a geographic event occurred.
