Abstract

The project described in this paper is an attempt to develop an integrated model for environmental research, which concentrates on the application spatial, and temporal analysis techniques to large-scale ecological data sets and includes satellite imagery and ground-based sensor data. The backbone of this project is a telecommunication system that can transport data recorded by environmental sensors to a knowledge base. Experimentation with tools for modeling and visualization is also in the scope of the research and bring in researchers from many fields including computer science, hydrology, mathematics, computer engineering, biology, marine sciences and electronics.
