Abstract

The paper compares Static GIS, Mobile GIS, Dynamic GIS and Moving GIS at first, then puts forward and discusses a description means of mobile objects, a model of spatial relation based on 9-intersection model and the query and analysis operations that Moving GIS should implement. On the above theory basis, the paper designs the function of Moving GIS and implements a prototype system named PNS-I on the basis of PDA, which has integrated GPS, GIS, GSM and GPRS.
