The Semantic Web offers new options for information processes. Dr. Visser is dealing with two core issues in this area: the integration of data on the semantic level and the problem of spatio-temporal representation and reasoning. He tackles existing research problems within the field of geographic information systems (GIS), the solutions of which are essential for an improved functionality of applications that make use of the Semantic Web (e.g., for heterogeneous digital maps). In addition, they are of fundamental significance for information sciences as such.
