A Reference System for Topological Relations between Compound Spatial Objects
نویسنده
چکیده
A current trend in the development of spatial-relation ontologies is to capture more and more details about the geometries of the spatial objects that are related, primarily by topological relations. In an effort to bridge between often disparate approaches, a reference system for topological relations between compound spatial objects is introduced. Its framework comprises the base relations’ conceptual neighborhood graphs, which, when nested, provide a means for visually analyzing the completeness and consistency of the set of derived relations.

مدلسازی روابط توپولوژیک سه بعدی فازی در محیط GIS
Nowadays, geospatial information systems (GIS) are widely used to solve different spatial problems based on various types of fundamental data: spatial, temporal, attribute and topological relations. Topological relations are the most important part of GIS which distinguish it from the other kinds of information technologies. One of the important mechanisms for representing topological relations...
متن کاملAn Adverbial Approach for the Formal Specification of Topological Constraints Involving Regions with Broad Boundaries
Topological integrity constraints control the topological properties of spatial objects and the validity of their topological relationships in spatial databases. These constraints can be specified by using formal languages such as the spatial extension of the Object Constraint Language (OCL). Spatial OCL allows the expression of topological constraints involving crisp spatial objects. However, ...
متن کاملQuantitative fuzzy topological relations of spatial objects by induced fuzzy topology
This paper presents a study on the modeling of fuzzy topological relations between uncertain objects in Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Based on the recently developed concept of computational fuzzy topological space, topological relations between simple fuzzy spatial objects are modeled. The fuzzy spatial objects here cover simple fuzzy region, simple fuzzy line segment and fuzzy point. ...
متن کاملFuzzy Intersection and Difference Model for Topological Relations
Topological relations have played important roles in spatial query, analysis and reasoning in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial databases. The topological relations between crisp and fuzzy spatial objects based upon the 9intersections topological model have been identified. However the formalization of the topological relations between fuzzy regions needs more investigation. The ...
متن کاملA 27-Intersection Model for Representing Detailed Topological Relations between Spatial Objects in Two-Dimensional Space
Determining the spatial relations between objects is a primary function of a geographic information system (GIS). One important aspect of spatial relations is topological relations, which remain constant under topological transformations. Describing the geometry of a spatial object using the OpenGIS Simple Features Specification requires only simple features: the interior, boundary and exterior...
