Access Structures for Fuzzy Spatial Queries

چکیده
Spatial data are complex and have spatial components and uncertain properties. It is important to develop effective spatial and aspatial indexing techniques to facilitate spatial and/or aspatial querying for databases that deal with spatial &a. In this study we discuss a number of spatial index structures, such as Multi-level grid file (ML,GF), R-tree, and R*-tree, for spatial andor aspatial queries.

Developing a BIM-based Spatial Ontology for Semantic Querying of 3D Property Information
With the growing dominance of complex and multi-level urban structures, current cadastral systems, which are often developed based on 2D representations, are not capable of providing unambiguous spatial information about urban properties. Therefore, the concept of 3D cadastre is proposed to support 3D digital representation of land and properties and facilitate the communication of legal owners...
متن کاملAn Indexing Method for Spatial Databases
In this paper, we introduce an indexing method for accessing spatial databases. The index structure described here is multi-dimensional and is an extension of Multilevel Grid File (MLGF) combined with the z-ordering technique to efficiently handle indexing on the spatial components of the objects. The other important property of the proposed index structure is to be able to index on fuzzy infor...
متن کاملFrom User Requirements to Evaluation Strategies of Flexible Queries in Databases
This chapter presents a discussion on fuzzy querying. It deals with the whole process of fuzzy querying, from the query formulation to its evaluation. Mainly, it advocates the use of index structures in the evaluation of fuzzy queries. First, various ways of introducing flexibility in querying processes are discussed, especially the most represented in the literature, which are based on ranking...
متن کاملA Fuzzy Image Matching Algorithm with Linguistic Spatial Queries
The function for spatial queries has been provided in some image retrieval systems for finding images satisfying given spatial relations. However, images themselves may contain ambiguity or the image processing technologies adopted may extract objects not accurately enough. Processing image queries in a flexible way is thus desired. In this paper, we thus propose a fuzzy image matching algorith...
متن کاملA Method for Protecting Access Pattern in Outsourced Data
Protecting the information access pattern, which means preventing the disclosure of data and structural details of databases, is very important in working with data, especially in the cases of outsourced databases and databases with Internet access. The protection of the information access pattern indicates that mere data confidentiality is not sufficient and the privacy of queries and accesses...
