Models and conceptualizations are necessary to understand and design ubiquitous systems that are context–aware not just from a technological point of view. The current technologi...
Spatial networks like transportation, power, and pipeline networks are a ubiquitous spatial concept in everyday life and play an important role for navigational and routing purpos...
In recent years, there has been a large increase in the amount of spatial data obtained from remote sensing, GPS receivers, communication terminals and other domains. Data warehous...
An important activity in the design of a particular database application consists in identifying the integrity constraints that must hold on the database, and that are used to det...

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...
