2.2. Hardware and Software Used 
Following hardware and soflware were used to realize this 
project. 
Hardware: The server has got Intel SBT2 server board, two 
Intel Pentium lll Xeon Processors, 512 MB ECC SDRAM, 
and one HP-1120C printer. 
Software: 
Geomedia Professional 4.00.22 
Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 Enterprise Edition. 
3. RESULTS 
This project has investigated three combinations of 
geographic objects changes that require processing (table 1). . 
graphic data | attribute data | 
1 fixed changes 
2 changes fixed 
3 change change 
Table 1. Combinations of change in geographic objects 
First of all, a geographic database was constructed to 
implementing this project. Then a *versioning" process that 
adds a new line into database table for only the changed 
object has been made. Thus the first version for graphic and 
attribute data of geographic objects in a particular time was 
achieved. After that when there were new temporal changes 
in geographic objects new versions have been made. In this 
paper it is accepted that displaying temporal changes on the 
“mesceretipi (stand type)" geographic object has complicated 
and intensive data structure in database. 
Following examples are given to explain how these temporal 
changes in both graphic and attribute data of “mesceretip!” 
geographic object is edited, queried, and displayed. 
While in 1964 geographic object stand type and stand number 
were respectively CkKkKnbd3 and 5 (figure 1), in 1983 its 
stand type was changed to Ckbd3. In this situation (version 
2), this new stand type was the same as stand number 23 and 
they have had to merged into one stand type (figure3). When 
this attribute change were edited in revision set and then 
committed. a new line was automatically added to database 
table through database management system (figure 2, 4).

Figure 4. Database table representation of changes in 1983 
Because of new situation (e.g. two same type neighbor stand 
type) two stand types were merged by using GIS software 
merge function (figure 5). After merge operation in revision 
set and committing this change new version were created 
(figure 6) and new lines were added automatically into 
database table (figure 7).
