This paper gives a definition of Hierarchical Spatial Reasoning, which computes increasingly better results in a hierarchical fashion and stops the computation when a result is ac...
An overview is presented of the use of hierarchical spatial data structures such as the quadtree. They are based on the principle of recursive decomposition. The focus is on the r...
Abstract. An algorithm for ranking spatial objects according to increasing distance from a query object is introduced and analyzed. The algorithm makes use of a hierarchical spatia...
Hierarchical spatial data structures provide a means for organizing data for efficient processing. Most spatial data structures are optimized for performing queries, such as inters...
