Claim One:
1. A spatial image information system for efficient storage and retrieval of spatial images acquired by an image acquisition device provided with a navigation system, the system comprising: a spatial image query interface component section for performing an interface function for interfacing with an external client, and processing a spatial image database construction query, spatial image retrieval/insertion/deletion queries, and a spatial object information manipulation query in the spatial images; a spatial image meta information component section for managing schema and index information of spatial image sequences, and processing a query about index information if the query about the index information is inputted from the spatial image query interface component section; a spatial image storage/retrieval component section for processing storage, retrieval and management of the spatial image sequences according to the query of the spatial image query interface component section; a spatial image to real coordinate conversion component section for receiving and converting the spatial image and a specified position in the image into a real-world coordinate (x,y,z) or receiving and converting the real-world coordinate (x,y,z) and the spatial image into the specified position in the spatial image according to the query of the spatial image query interface component section; and an open type spatial image database interface component section for storing and managing the spatial images by interfacing the spatial image meta information component section, the spatial image storage/retrieval component section and the spatial image to real coordinate conversion component section with a storage system irrespective of a kind of the storage system.
