Map Production From An Active Object Database, Using Dynamic Representation and Automated Generalisation
نویسنده
چکیده
Map production has been seen previously as a standalone task, compiling information together from various sources to produce a particular cartographic product. This traditional view is now challenged by the availability of new environments which bring together databasing, object data modelling, image analysis, active agent behaviour and automated cartography to produce a unified flowline for production of multiple maps, charts, and geospatial data. This paper overviews the capabilities of a modern map production application built around an object-oriented geospatial database, and specifically highlights its capabilities for active representation, multiple geometry and automated generalisation, in order to explore the benefits and future directions of active object mapping.

1.0 BACKGROUND The problem of deriving a range of map scales from a common database is considered an interesting and challenging area of research and development in today’s map production environment. Technological developments in dynamic cartographic generalisation applications (e.g. mobile mapping, vehicle navigation) call for a robust, practical and cost-effective way of fulfilling automated...
متن کامل3D Scene and Object Classification Based on Information Complexity of Depth Data
In this paper the problem of 3D scene and object classification from depth data is addressed. In contrast to high-dimensional feature-based representation, the depth data is described in a low dimensional space. In order to remedy the curse of dimensionality problem, the depth data is described by a sparse model over a learned dictionary. Exploiting the algorithmic information theory, a new def...
متن کاملImproving Automated Generalisation for On-Demand Web Mapping by Multiscale Databases
This paper describes the generation of maps on-demand with the use of a multiscale database. It is based on an analysis of the requirements of on-demand mapping and points out the different requests and limits of on-demand cartography. The central idea is to combine two commonly used approaches in cartography: On the one hand the use of a multi-scale database which includes two or more levels o...
متن کاملMulti-Scale Spatial Database and Map Generalisation
The constitution of multi-scale spatial databases is closely linked to map generalisation. Elements of a multi-scale spatial database include multi-scale data models, multi-scale data storage schemes, methods to generate multi-scale datasets and methods to access these datasets and present results. In this paper we proposed a formal multi-scale spatial data model with an information-rich struct...
متن کاملComparing the vario-scale approach with a discrete multi-representation based approach for automated generalisation of topographic data
Datasets at different scales can be obtained and maintained by two main approaches that differ considerably. The first option is the vario-scale approach that offers the possibility to derive a map at an arbitrary map scale (hence its name) by performing once a fully automatic generalisation process on the input data set. This sounds as the optimal situation. However, since fast and fully autom...
