Spatial Data Types for Database Systems : Finite Resolution Geometry for Geographic Information Systems Paperback / softback
by Markus Schneider
Part of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series
Paperback / softback
Description
Database research in the last decade has increasingly focused on providing support for non-standard applications.
One important domain is representation and processing of spatial information, needed, e.g., in geographical information systems.
Spatial data types provide a fundamental abstraction for modeling the structure of geometric entities, their relationships, properties and operations.
This monograph is an extensive survey of this field and introduces a new, general, sophisticated framework for the formal definition and robust implementation of spatial data types.
