Abstract

With the emerging availability of small and portable devices which are able to determine their position and to communicate wirelessly, mobile and spatially-aware applications become feasible. These applications rely on information that is bound to locations and managed by so-called location-based data services. Based on a classification of location-based data services we introduce a service-oriented architecture that is built on a federation approach to efficiently support location-based applications.
