Apparatus and methods for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents
First Claim
1. An apparatus for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents, comprising:
- a storage unit that divides and stores a plurality of spatial/geographic contents according to types of contents and then stores identifiers and representative spatial information of each of the plurality of spatial/geographic contents;
an extracting unit that extracts the representative spatial information from input search information and the spatial/geographic contents; and
a managing unit that detects identifiers corresponding to the representative spatial information extracted from the search information in the extracting unit from the storage unit and detects the spatial/geographic contents corresponding to the detected identifiers from the storage unit.

Abstract
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents that detects spatial information from contents including spatial semantics and integrates and manages the contents in various types. The apparatus for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents includes: a storage unit that divides and stores a plurality of contents according to types of contents and stores identifiers and representative spatial information of each of the plurality of contents; an extracting unit that extracts input search information and the representative spatial information from the contents; and a managing unit that detects identifiers corresponding to the representative spatial information extracted from the search information in the extracting unit from the storage unit and detects the contents corresponding to the detected identifiers from the storage unit.

12. A method for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents, comprising:
-
setting identifiers of spatial/geographic contents by a managing unit; extracting representative spatial information from the spatial/geographic contents by an extracting unit; spatial information storing that associates the identifiers of the spatial/geographic contents set at the setting step with the representative spatial information of the spatial/geographic contents extracted at the extracting step by the managing unit and stores them in the storage unit; and contents storing that associates the identifiers set at the setting step with the spatial/geographic contents by the managing unit and stores them in the storage unit. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method for integrated management of spatial/geographic contents, comprising:
-
extracting representative spatial information from input search information by an extracting unit; identifier detecting that detects identifiers corresponding to the representative spatial information extracted in the extracting step from the storage unit, by the managing unit; and contents detecting that detects the spatial/geographic contents corresponding to the identifiers detected in the identifier detecting step from the storage unit, by the managing unit. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
