Abstract
With some signicant exceptions, current applications for data mining are either in those areas for which there are little accepted discovery methodologies or in those areas that are being used within a knowledge discovery process that does not expect authoritative results but nds the discovered rules useful nonetheless. This is in contrast to its application in the elds applicable to spatial or spatio-temporal discovery, which possess a rich history of methodological discovery and result evaluation.
