GeoVisipedia (Geospatial Visual Wikipedia) is a new and novel approach to sharing knowledge about complex geospatial entities such as facilities. Facilities are composed of interconnected objects such as buildings, chemical processing units, electrical generation equipment and similar structures. Satellite imagery of a facility reveals a great deal about the organization and visual appearance of objects in a facility, but very little about the identity or function of the object. For example, given a satellite imagery of an oil refinery, an expert in refining readily identifies distillation units and can explain how they work. A non-expert would have a very difficult time identifying these objects let alone explaining how they function.

Overview

GeoVisipedia (Geospatial Visual Wikipedia) is a new and novel approach to sharing knowledge about complex geospatial entities such as facilities. Facilities are composed of interconnected objects such as buildings, chemical processing units, electrical generation equipment and similar structures. Satellite imagery of a facility reveals a great deal about the organization and visual appearance of objects in a facility, but very little about the identity or function of the object. For example, given a satellite imagery of an oil refinery, an expert in refining readily identifies distillation units and can explain how they work. A non-expert would have a very difficult time identifying these objects let alone explaining how they function.
