Abstract
Since XML could benefit greatly from database support and more specifically from relational database systems, we study the methodology of modeling fuzzy spatiotemporal data in XML and relational database, respectively. Furthermore, the approaches of transforming fuzzy spatiotemporal data between XML and relational databases have been proposed as well. To accomplish this, fuzzy spatiotemporal data models are devised in XML and in relational database to capture the semantics of fuzzy spatiotemporal features, respectively. To allow for better and platform independent sharing of fuzzy spatiotemporal data stored in a relational format, a temporal edge approach is proposed to accomplish the transformation of fuzzy spatiotemporal data between XML and relational databases. The unique feature of our approach is that no schema information is required for transformation of fuzzy spatiotemporal data. Moreover, temporal, spatial, and fuzzy features of fuzzy spatiotemporal data in XML documents are taken into consideration. Such approach of transformation could provide a significant consolidation of the interoperability of fuzzy spatiotemporal data between XML and relational databases.
