Spatial Data Types for Database Systems: Finite Resolution Geometry for Geographic Information Systems (Lecture Notes in Computer Science)

by Markus Schneider

On This Page

Description

Database research in the last decade has increasingly focused on providing support for non-standard applications. One important domain is representation and processing of spatial information, needed, e.g., in geographical information systems. Spatial data types provide a fundamental abstraction for modeling the structure of geometric entities, their relationships, properties and operations. This monograph is an extensive survey of this field and introduces a new, general, sophisticated show more framework for the formal definition and robust implementation of spatial data types. show less
