Paper Abstract:
|
This paper presents an approach to automatic geo-referencing of web pages. The approach is based on automatic recognition of address information in Web-pages. The paper presents the GRef prototype which consists of a geo-indexing crawler and a map-oriented search interface. GRef thus deals with the task of placing web-pages in geographic space based on the document contents more specifically postal addresses found within the pages. Design issues for the development of geo-based indexing of Web pages are discussed. |
