Texture based recognition of topographic map symbols
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a method that is able to assign the symbols of vectorized maps into polygon attributes. It reduces the required storage space of the database by removing the corresponding polygons from the vectorized data model. This procedure is presented with optimized pattern matching on the raster image source of the map, where the symbols are handled as special textures. This method will be improved by using a raw vector model and the kernel symbols.

Landforms identification using neural network-self organizing map and SRTM data
During an 11 days mission in February 2000 the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) collected data over 80% of the Earth's land surface, for all areas between 60 degrees N and 56 degrees S latitude. Since SRTM data became available, many studies utilized them for application in topography and morphometric landscape analysis. Exploiting SRTM data for recognition and extraction of topographic ...
متن کاملGenerating Logic Descriptions for the Automated Interpretation of Topographic Maps
Automating the interpretation of a map in order to locate some geographical objects and their relations is a challenging task, which goes beyond the transformation of map images into a vectorized representation and the recognition of symbols. In this work, we present an approach to the automated interpretation of vectorized topographic maps. It is based on the generation of logic descriptions o...

This paper presents a method for the extraction of high level compound forest cover information from manually produced scanned historical topographic maps. The contained forest cover is a unique data source for GIS-based land cover change modelling. As a case study, this work focuses on the so-called Siegfried Map, the Swiss national topographic map series of the 19 century. The map is of low g...

متن کاملTopographic Map Visualization from Adaptively Compressed Textures
Raster-based topographic maps are commonly used in geoinformation systems to overlay geographic entities on top of digital terrain models. Using compressed texture formats for encoding topographic maps allows reducing latency times while visualizing large geographic datasets. Topographic maps encompass high-frequency content with large uniform regions, making current compressed texture formats ...
