CLUSTERING AND NOISE DETECTION FOR GEOGRAPHIC KNOWLEDGE DISCOVERY

Ample amount of geographic data has been collected with modern data acquisition techniques such as a Global Positioning System, high resolution remote sensing and internet based volunteered geographic information. Spatial datasets are large in size, multidimensional and have high complexity measures. To address these challenges Spatial Data Mining (SDM) for Geographic Knowledge Discovery (GKD) are the emerging fields for extraction of useful information and knowledge mining for many applications. This paper addresses the clustering and noise detection technique for spatial data. We considered multidimensional spatial data to provide feasible environment to place sensitive devices in a laboratory by using the data collected from the sensors. Various sensors were used to collect the spatial and temporal data. The GDBSCAN algorithm is used for clustering, which relies on density based notation of clustering and is designed to discover clusters of arbitrary shape and distinguish noise. The proposed work reduces the computation cost and increase the performance.
