Abstract
Spatial information in autonomous robot tasks is uncertain due to measurement errors, the dynamic nature of the world, and an incompletely known environment. We present a probabilistic spatial data model capable of describing relevant spatial data, such as object location, shape, composition, and other parameters, in the presence of uncertainty. Uncertain spatial information is modeled through continuous probability distributions on values of attributes. The data model is designed to support our visual tracking and navigation prototype.
