Data Structures and Algorithms for Raster Data Processing
نویسنده
چکیده
The digital image raster data structure is proving to be a useful representation for geographic information from the viewpoints of both storage and processing. Several components of this trend can be identified: the development of scanners such as Landsat for remote sensing of the Earth's surface, the development of a raster representation for terrain (elevation) data, the spread of image processing technology, and increased sophistication in application areas. The raster data structure is familiar to planners as a fine grid cell system, but current emphasis is upon ultra-large or ultra-fine raster processing made possible by image processing technology.

An Algorithm for Centreline Extraction Using Natural Neighbour Interpolation
Data caption and conversion are two of the most costly operations of any GIS, in terms of computer time and manual work needed for spatial data acquisition. They can represent up to 80 percent of the total implementation costs. Manual digitising is a very error prone and costly operation, especially due to the lack of explicit topology in commercial GIS systems. Indeed, each map update might re...

متن کاملParleda: a Library for Parallel Processing in Computational Geometry Applications
ParLeda is a software library that provides the basic primitives needed for parallel implementation of computational geometry applications. It can also be used in implementing a parallel application that uses geometric data structures. The parallel model that we use is based on a new heterogeneous parallel model named HBSP, which is based on BSP and is introduced here. ParLeda uses two main lib...
