چکیده

Traditional map-labeling algorithms ensure that the labels being placed do not overlap each other, either by omitting labels or scaling them. This is undesirable in applications where the points to be labeled are moving. We develop and experimentally evaluate a heuristic for labeling moving points. Our algorithm labels all the points with labels of a fixed size, while trying to minimize the number of overlapping labels and ensuring smoothly moving labels. It allows a trade-off between label speed and label overlap.

Elastic Labels on the Perimeter of a Rectangle

An important and challenging task in cartography is the labeling of maps— attaching text to geographic features. Usually, the features to be labeled are regions, lines, and points on a map. One of the traditional formulations of the problem of labeling points is the point-feature-label placement problem, where we are given a set of points in the plane, and an axis-parallel rectangular label ass...

An efficient algorithm for label updating in 2PM model to avoid a moving object

In this paper, we present a simple and fast algorithm for updating labels of a set of points in presence of a moving point-shaped object. The labels are assumed to be axis parallel, unit length, square shaped, each attached exclusively to a point on one of its horizontal (vertical) edges, denoted by 2PM model. The updated labeling should include all labels, avoid the moving point with largest p...
