Welcome to Hermes Moving Object Database Homepage ______________________________________________________________________________________________________
Composition of temporal and spatial properties of real world objects in a unified data framework results into Moving Object
Databases (MOD). MODs are able to process, manage and analyze discretely or continuously changing spatio-temporal data.
HERMES provides MOD functionality to OpenGIS-compatible state-of-theart Object-Relational DBMS.
HERMES is designed to be used as a pure temporal or a pure spatial system, however, its main application is to support
modeling and querying of moving objects.
A relevant collection of abstract data types (ADT) and their corresponding operations are defined, developed and provided as
a data cartridge extending SQL-like query languages with MOD semantics.
