Abstract

Spatial information has been received much attention recently. A ubiquitous computing environment enables us to monitor a user behavior and potentially provide tailored information services depending on the user situations such as location. Navigation and city tours are some of the major applications of GIS (Geographic Information Service) using location information.

We consider that space has a meaning. For example, when one is in a lounge, that person may be able to drink something. She may be relaxing talking with someone else, or thinking alone while smoking. We understand the meaning of spaces unconsiously. This study is an attempt to capture the meaning of space by explicitly describing the meaning of space to utilize for for advanced locationbased information services.
