ucR-based spatial information framework

We propose a spatial information sharing framework using ucR (ucode Relation) model. This framework distinguishes the places by the unique number called “ucode” and describes attributes or information of these places by a semi-structured data model called “ucR model”. To ensure the flexibility of the information expression for the places and to realize the easy access to the information, we develop an abstract schema called “ucR schema” on the ucR model and “ucR SOAP API” to access attributes of places using the ucR schema.
