Retrieval and interpretation of textual geolocalized information based on semantic geolocalized relations

This paper describes a method for geolocalized information retrieval from natural language text and its interpretation by assigning it geographic coordinates. Proof-of-concept implementation is discussed, along with a geolocalized dictionary stored in a PostGIS/PostgreSQL spatial relational database. The discussed research focuses on the strongly inflectional Polish language; hence, additional complexity had to be taken into account. The presented method has been evaluated with the use of diverse metrics.
