Abstract :
Extending beyond today´s geographical information system (GIS) applications and wireless positioning techniques, location-based services (LBS) have become a new compelling branch and supplied egocentric location information anywhere anytime. In order to speed up interactive location-based queries in moving or field environments effectively, the paper has given a valuable attempt on LBS with natural language and also achieved: (1) Natural language analysis for Geospatial relations; (2) Interactive LBS queries with natural language; (3) Chinese language segmentation and regulation into Geo-SQL; (4) an application framework from phonetic LBS requests to mobile terminal responses in textual message or graphic formats.
