Spatial Data Mining

Deren Li,a scientist in photogrammetry and remote sensing, is the membership of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, membership of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, membership of the Euro-Asia International Academy of Science, Professor and PhD supervisor of Wuhan University, Vice-President of the Chinese Society of Geodesy, Photogrammetry and Cartography, Chairman of the Academic Commission of Wuhan University and the National Laboratory for Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing (LIESMARS). He has concentrated on the research and education in spatial information science and technology represented by remote sensing (RS), global positioning system (GPS) and geographic information system (GIS). His majors are the analytic and digital photogrammetry, remote sensing, mathematical morphology and its application in spatial databases, theories of object-oriented GIS and spatial data mining in GIS as well as mobile mapping systems, etc. Prof. Deren Li served as Comm. III and Comm. VI president of ISPRS in 1988-1992 and 1992-1996, worked for CEOS in 2002-2004 and president of Asia GIS Association in 2003-2006. He got Dr.h.c. from ETH in 2008. In 2010 he has been elected ISPRS fellow.Shuliang Wang, PhD, a scientist in data science and software engineering, is a professor in Beijing Institute of Technology in China. His research interests include spatial data mining, and software engineering. For his innovatory study of spatial data mining, he was awarded the Fifth Annual InfoSci-Journals Excellence in Research Awards of IGI Global, IEEE Outstanding Contribution Award for Granular Computing, and one of China’s National Excellent Doctoral Thesis Prizes. Deyi Li, PhD, a scientist in computer science and artificial intelligence, is the founder of cloud model. He is now a professor in Tsinghua University in China, a membership of Chinese Academy of Engineering and a membership of the Euro-Asia International Academy of Science.
