Research Interests

• My main research questions are:
  • Data Science and Data Visualization for Big Data: How to analyze, abstract, represent, visualize, and use networked data (like Linked Data) in revolutionary ways? (see example work)
  • What are basic (and optimal) interaction and exploration patterns in the case of big geospatial data? Which gestures are natural for interacting with maps? (see example work)
  • How can we analyze, reason about, understand and formally represent complex spatiotemporal systems? (see example work)
  • What kind of formal linkage can we discover and establish between very different kinds of phenomena and how? (see example work)
  • What are the important representation and visualization mechanisms for processes, events and operations of spatiotemporal systems? (see example work)
  • How can we change the way science is done to achieve Linked Science? For example, how can we open up all the data and methods to support science to be more transparent, reproducible and transdisciplinary? How to support openness and transparency of a university? (see example work)
• These research questions I am tackling with the following toolbox:
  • Data Science, Information Systems, Linked Open Data technologies, Information Visualization, ontologies, spatio-temporal reasoning and spatio-temporal ontologies concerned with modeling space, time, or processes (environmental, socio-economic), geographic information science, operations research, data mining, crowdsourcing, Linked Science, fuzzy sets, statistical computing, and different systems of logic.

Education

• Tomi holds a doctorate (PhD) in Media Technology from the Aalto University School of Science (2010) and a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Helsinki (2004).

• Founder of ObservedChange.com
  • Sharing methods, tools, data for analyzing and understanding complex systems such as crisis management, humanitarian logistics, extreme weather events, deforestation, land-change trajectories. In other words: changes that should be observed and shared..
• Co-founder and researcher in the University of Muenster's Linked Data initiative called Linked Open Data University of Muenster (LODUM), with a special focus on activities related to Linked Universities, Linked Science and spatiotemporal data handling.

Past projects prior joining WWU Münster

• Project manager and researcher in developing Finnish spatio-temporal ontology (SAPO, Suomen ajallinen paikkaontologia) that represents knowledge about changes (merges, splits) in historical regions (cities, counties). SAPO has been published in the Finnish Ontology Library Service ONKI (www.yso.fi). SAPO is constantly updated as new changes occur concerning regions.
• Leader and researcher in the work package on geospatial ontologies and reasoning methods of FinnONTO, with special emphasis on handling large spatiotemporal linked data.
