— In this paper, multiple on-board sensors are used to assess the terrain safety in real-time during spacecraft descent. A linguistic, fuzzy rule-based reasoning engine is used t...
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....
An algorithm is presented to answer window queries in a quadtree-based spatial database environment by retrieving the covering blocks in the underlying spatial database. It works ...
Spatial data are often stored in a database with the finest level of details. The problem of cartographic generalization of spatial data concerns deriving spatial data with proper...
Abstract. Besides topological relations and approximate relations, cardinal directions have turned out to be an important class of qualitative spatial relations. In spatial databas...
