Dr. Gail Kucera is a leading authority on the design and implementation of spatiotemporal systems. Her book, called "Time in Geographic Information Systems" (published under the name "Gail Langran"), is a seminal reference for anyone attempting to address spatiotemporal issues of representation, analysis, and design at conceptual, logical, and physical levels. Dr. Kucera is experienced at identifying critical user requirements for spatial and temporal information, creating conceptual models and assisting clients in weighing their costs and benefits, analyzing project risks, and creating a spatial and temporal database design that fits the goals and budget of the client. She has performed extensive research and development in spatiotemporal data modeling, both for operational purposes and long-term vision. The combined result of her practical and conceptual efforts is an unparalleled understanding of what it takes to add the necessary elements of temporality to an existing spatial system, to improve its expressiveness and usefulness. She has worked with clients in both government and industry to model all aspects of spatial change and volatility.
