Cross-domain data fusion is becoming a key driver in the growth of numerous and diverse applications in the Internet of Things (IoT) era. We have proposed the concept of a new information platform, Geo-Centric Information Platform (GCIP), that enables IoT data fusion based on geolocation, i.e., produces spatio-temporal content (STC), and then provides the STC to users. In this environment, users cannot know in advance “when,” “where,” or “what type” of STC is being generated because the type and timing of STC generation vary dynamically with the diversity of IoT data generated in each geographical area. This makes it difficult to directly search for a specific STC requested by the user using the content identifier (domain name of URI or content name). To solve this problem, a new content discovery method that does not directly specify content identifiers is needed while taking into account (1) spatial and (2) temporal constraints. In our previous study, we proposed a content discovery method that considers only spatial constraints and did not consider temporal constraints. This paper proposes a new content discovery method that matches user requests with content metadata (topic) characteristics while taking into account spatial and temporal constraints. Simulation results show that the proposed method successfully discovers appropriate STC in response to a user request.
