An Abstraction-based Machine Learning Approach to Cartographic Generalisation
This article proposes a machine learning approach to overcome the knowledge acquisition bottleneck limiting the automation of cartographic generalisation. It first explains why this automation must be guided by a differentiation of two main types of knowledge involved in this process. More precisely, it shows that cartographic generalisation is best viewed as a combination of two processes: rep...
متن کاملModel-based cartographic generalisation with uncertainty
The aim of this paper is to outline a proposed project to holistically generalise spatial data using agents. Cartographic generalisation is a process that is fraught with uncertainty – for a particular spatial scale there are an infinite amount of combinations for the display (or non-display) of data in the map space. Each map element (e.g. objects such as roads or buildings can be map elements...
متن کاملWhat Is Spatial Context in Cartographic Generalisation
During the cartographic generalisation process, geographic objects cannot just be considered one by one. The way objects are processed clearly depends on their spatial context. In this paper, we first study the nature of spatial context encountered during map generalisation. We differentiate three kinds of relations that an object can have with its environment: being part of a significant group...
متن کاملLearning Abstraction and Representation Knowledge: an Application to Cartographic Generalisation
This article proposes a machine learning approach to overcome the knowledge acquisition bottleneck that limits the automation of cartographic generalisation. It first explains why this automation must be guided by a differentiation of two main types of knowledge involved in this process. More precisely, it shows that cartographic generalisation can be accomplished by a combination of two proces...
متن کاملCharacterisation and generalisation of cartographic lines using Delaunay triangulation
A method is presented for generalising cartographic lines using an approach based on determination of their structure. Constrained Delaunay triangulation is used to construct a skeleton of the space surrounding the lines and hence represent line features in terms of skeleton branches. Several statistical measures are used to characterise the triangulation branches. The measures enable selective...
