Problems with Handling Spatial Data
نویسنده
چکیده
Experience with the handling of spatial data on a computer led to the identification of a variety of ‘'awkward” problems, including interpolation, error estimation and dynamic polygon building and editing. Many of the problems encountered could be classified as “‘spatial adjacency” issues. The Voronoi diagram of points and line segments in the Euclidean plane is shown to give a functional definition of spatial adjacency. The basic operations for incremental construction and maintenance of this Voronoi diagram and its dual are described, and a variety of applications are outlined.

Spatial Interpolation Using Copula for non-Gaussian Modeling of Rainfall Data
‎One of the most useful tools for handling multivariate distributions of dependent variables in terms of their marginal distribution is a copula function‎. ‎The copula families capture a fair amount of attention due to their applicability and flexibility in describing the non-Gaussian spatial dependent data‎. ‎The particular properties of the spatial copula are rarely ...
متن کاملHandling Data Spatially: Spatializating User Interfaces
The impact of GIS research extends beyond GIS. Our expertise about space, spatial relations, and spatial knowledge needs to be shared with other domains who can benefit from it, even if their problems are not inherently spatial. This paper discusses the needs for spatial expertise in the field of human-computer interaction. Modern user interface design increasingly employs spatial metaphors to ...

متن کاملModelling Heterogeneous and Distributed Spatial Datasets to Support Updates Management
The update of distributed geographic data still poses many problems due essentially to the datas specific characteristics (spatial constituent, topology, for example). We propose a metadata model to aid in the management of different actors located at several sites handling heterogeneous data that are regularly updated. This model is based on the ISO 19115 standard, which is the metadata stand...

Modeling and Wrench feasible workspace analysis of a spatial cable suspended robots is presented. A six-cable spatial cable robot is used the same as Stewart robots. Due to slow motion of the robot we suppose the motion as pseudostatic and kinetostatic modeling is performed. Various workspaces are defined and the results of simulation are presented on the basis of various workspaces and app...
