Classifying and Comparing Spatial Relations of Computerized Maps for Feature Matching Applications
RR87-27
Abstract
Modern computerized maps either contain digital information on spatial relations, such as adjacency relations, shape, network patterns, and measures of position and distance of features, or they permit derivation of that information from the features, or they permit derivation of that information from the feature data that they do contain. Such spatial attributes lend themselves to computerized statistical analysis much like any other data.
