A spatial expression is a text fragment which describes a relative location of two or more physical objects to each other. The first part of the paper treats about a Polish corpus annotated with spatial expressions and annotators agreement. In the second part we analyse the feasibility of spatial expression recognition by overviewing relevant tools and resources for text processing for Polish. Then we present a knowledge-based approach which utilizes the existing tools and resources for Polish, including: a morpho-syntactic tagger, shallow parsers, a dependency parser, a named entity recognizer, a general ontology, a wordnet and a wordnet to ontology mapping. We also present a dedicated set of manually created syntactic and semantic patterns for generating and filtering candidates of spatial expressions. In the last part we discuss the results obtained on the reference corpus with the proposed method and present detailed error analysis.", address = "Cham", booktitle = "Text, Speech, and Dialogue: 19th International Conference, TSD 2016, Brno , Czech Republic, September 12-16, 2016, Proceedings", doi = "10.1007/978-3-319-45510-5_18", editor = "Sojka, Petrand Hor{\'a}k, Ale{\v{s}}and Kope{\v{c}}ek, Ivanand Pala, Karel", isbn = "978-3-319-45510-5", keywords = "information extraction;spatial relations;spatial expressions", pages = "154--162", publisher = "Springer International Publishing", series = "Lecture Notes in Computer Science", title = "{P}reliminary {S}tudy on {A}utomatic {R}ecognition of {S}patial {E}xpressions in {P}olish {T}exts", url = "http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-45510-5_18", volume = "9924", year = "2016", }
