We present a data structure used to represent planar spatial databases in the topological data model. Conceptually, such databases consist of points, lines between these points, an...
The importance of topological relationships between spatial objects is recognized in many disciplines. In the field of spatial databases, topological relationships have played an ...
Reasoning about space has been a considerable field of study both in Artificial Intelligence and in spatial information theory. Many applications benefit from the inference of ...
In this paper we discuss two data models for spatial database systems: the linear data model and the topological data model. Both can be used to model a wide range of applications....
