The use of geosensors, including GPS receivers, micro-sensors for biological and chemical substance monitoring, and still and video cameras, has steadily increased, and therefore a new paradigm for geocomputation is required. Sensor-Based Distribution Geocomputing addresses issues related to the collection, analysis, management and delivery of geospatial data using distributed geosensors. Geocomputation can be used to collect this kind of data from multiple sources over a broad geographic area, and to enable the data's dissemination to multiple users. It draws on computer science, addressing issues like mobile and wireless computing, location-based services and products, spatiotemporal analysis, automated updating of geospatial databases, VR modeling, computer vision and real-time databases.
