    Human mobility has received much attention in many research fields such as geography, sociology, physics, epidemiology, urban planning and management in recent years. On the one hand, trajectory datasets characterized by a large scale, long time series and fine spatial-temporal granularity become more and more available with rapid development of mobile positioning, wireless communication and mobile internet technologies. On the other hand, quantitative studies of human mobility are strongly supported by interdisciplinary research among geographic information science, statistical physics, complex networks and computer science. In this paper, firstly, data sources and methods currently used in human mobility studies are systematically summarized. Then, the research is comprehended and divided into two main streams, namely people oriented and geographical space oriented. The people oriented research focuses on exploring statistical laws of human mobility, establishing models to explain the appropriate kinetic mechanism, as well as analyzing human activity patterns and predicting human travel and activities. The geographical space oriented research focuses on exploring the process of human activities in geographical space and investigating the interactions between human movement and geographical space. Followed by a detailed review of recent progress around these two streams of research, some research challenges are proposed, especially on data sparsity, data skew processing and heterogeneous data mining, indicating that more integration of multidiscipline are required in human mobility studies in the future.

    Aiming at the current application and requirement of watermark technology on GIS vector data,this article proposes a double embedded auto-adapted watermark algorithm(DEAWA) for the vector digital mapping,which is based on the applied characteristic of administrative or physical division,and the various aspects of GIS vector data such as element style,data format and redundant initiation position.The DEAWA means that,once for point layer,the algorithm used for adaptive embedding and extracting is based on administrative(or physical) regionalization and for polyline or polygon layer,the algorithm is based on feature.This algorithm can automatically sense the carrier and adaptively adjust the intensity and the location of the watermark.However,because of the disordered point storage in GIS vector data,the watermark can be easily destroyed but the data precision keeps unaffected when the storage sequence of points is aggressively adjusted.Therefore,in order to avoid such invalid sequence,the DEAWA can be improved by using spatial relationship and position to arrange the point sequence in advance so that the watermark can be orderly embedded and extracted.Finally,according to the definition of difference,this article judges the imperceptibility of watermark algorithm for the GIS vector data through the operation of spatial analysis.The experiments show that the DEAWA possesses excellent imperceptibility and robustness.

    Raster data vectorization is one of the key techniques for the integration of remote sensing and GIS.Although it's a traditional problem with a lot of algorithm proposed,there still exist many defects including,e.g.,the problem of the "island",especially the multi-nested "island" in many vectorizing methods.In this paper,an improved algorithm for raster data vectoriation is proposed.This method includes four main steps.The first step is to extract the vertices and nodes.Moving through the image using a 2×2 template window,we can extract the vertices and nodes and their connection information.The second step is to construct the arcs.We use the connection information to construct the non-closed and closed arcs.The third step is to build the polygons.With left-turn algorithm,we can build simple polygons from non-closed arcs.Besides,since closed arcs correspond to simple polygons,we only have to convert a vertex of an arc to a vertex of a polygon.The last step is to deal with the "islands".We judge containing relationship among these polygons.Since a polygon may be contained by several parent polygons,we should find its minimal containing parent and then deal with the "islands".The main advantages of the proposed algorithm include the follows.1) Algorithm efficiency is relatively fast.2) It isn't sensitive to the size of raster data,but only sensitive to the number of the nodes and vertexes.3) It can build the correct topology and then solve the problem of multi-nested "island".Our method is validated with many successful experiments when applied in vectorizing the remote sensing classification imagery.

    The advantage of P2P structure is fast at discovering and getting service.And the advantage of GeoOntology Repository is helpful to make semantic reasoning and to solve the conflict of geographical semantics.So,in order to alleviate "single point of failure" of central system based on SOA,this paper combines semantics P2P with SOA to publish distributed web services instead of using UDDI of SOA to central publishing service.By creating the geographical ontology and introducing geographical semantics P2P into SOA,this paper extends the service bus of SOA into geographical service bus(GSB).The service discovery of GSB is based on semantic P2P,and the new service discovery mechanism is implemented in GSB.All these details are encapsulated in GSB,so it is transparent for each service attached to GSB.The communication way among services is the same as the way using SOA.This way can let the legacy system upgrade smoothly.So our prototype not only holds the advantages of SOA on interoperability and transparent use of services under distributed heterogeneous geographical information sharing systems but also utilizes semantics P2P to complete the auto discovery task.Our method also provides an innovative idea for large scale sharing geographial data and services of science data sharing platform.

    Nowadays geographical data working in GIS is mostly from digital map.The classification and encoding for the mapping elements on the digital map are very significant to building GIS,so the digital map data must be coincident with the geographical data which share GIS.The mapping elements are not equivalent to the geo-information features,or geo-information feature elements.The mapping elements and geo-information features are on different levels ontologically.To encode for the mapping elements,we must tell the difference of classification and codes for digital mapping elements from the geo-information feature's as well as give a system and encoding method of digital mapping elements which follows the geo-information feature's classification and codes.In the paper,the digital mapping elements are divided into two categories including "pure mapping elements" which are a set of mapping elements minus geographical feature elements,and "GIS′ elements" which are a set of mapping elements intersect the the geo-information feature elements;the concepts of virtual element,pseudo code and virtual code are introduced for the co-operation to the relations between the mapping elements and the geo-information features.The principle to design the classification and encoding method for the mapping elements on digital maps in the paper is to carry out the national standard of specifications for feature classification and codes of geo-information in the stage of digital mapping.The maneuverability of the classiication and encoding for the mapping elements in the paper is flexible and efficacious.The paper gives an example of the image from the mapping elements to the geographical features as well.

    Waterfront resource is an important component of land resource in China,and resource evaluation is the major work in waterfront resource studies.In China,the studies began at the end of the 1980s and focused mainly on the lower and middle reaches of the Yangtze River.In those methods,quantitative analysis and GIS tools have been applied.It is impractical to analyze the waterfront resource only according to the natural conditions and economic conditions.In order to gain both socio-economic and ecological benefits,in terms of the characteristic of Nanjing section of the Yangtze River,the factor index in this study is established including waterfront depth,stability of waterfront,water-behind land width,water resources protection areas and scenic resort and historic sites.In accord,the steps of resource evaluation are to cut cells,to evaluate each factor,and to grade waterfront.Applying GIS and ArcGIS Engine exploring tools,this paper implements the integrative evaluation along the Yangtze River in Nanjing,on the basis of which,index of individual evaluation is evaluated and reasonable division of waterfront cells.The evaluation results show that waterfront resource is rich,of which the fine parts take up around half of the overall length;furthermore,the fine parts are very concentrated which are fit to utilization.All the jobs can provide some consultation for scientific and reasonable utilization and exploitation of waterfront resource of the Yangtze River in Nanjing.
