  Smart Data

  E103
  14:00 - 15:30 hrs.

  Localisation services, offered in various forms to companies and consumers, play a special part in the process of linking and combining geo information. As a result, the accessibility of (geo)information is increasing. It is always possible to locate citizens with the help of GPS. Today, added value comes to location-based services (LBS), that are used regularly for enforcing legal order at events, pointing motorists in the direction of the nearest petrol station or warning them for a traffic jam ahead. Through augmented reality it is possible to show extra layers of information -- for instance directions to find a nearby cash machine -- on the screen of a smartphone. Smart use of geo data can increase efficiency in farming needed to meet food demands in densily crowded areas. Specialised satellite applications can help inform farmers better to produce better crops and corresponding revenues. In sports, added value comes to location data that provide additional information during a football match or show the route runners are covering in 3D via Google Earth. Location data could help solve traffic problems or be applied on a micro-level in healthcare facilities. In science, these data are used for accurate positioning of the sun and other solar systems at research facilities such as LOFAR.
