AbstractThe fundamental of cartographic generalisation, the reduction of the amount of information which can be shown on a map in relation to reduction in scale, is examined. The Principle of Selection was first proposed by Töpfer in 1961, and is expressed as an equation relating the number of occurrences of a particular feature at source map scale and at derived map scale. The application of this to small-scale maps involves the introduction of two constants to represent symbolic exaggeration and symbolic form. Examples are given and illustrated. The paper is accompanied by explanatory notes by Dr D. H. Maling, who presented the paper on behalf of the authors at the XX International Geographical Congress London 1964, Section IX, Cartography. 相似文献

Colour distortion, which is caused by the unavoidable mismatch between a map’s gamut and a device’s gamut, negatively affects the semiotic quality of maps. Cartographic communication often suffers from undesirable colour inconsistency. This method models cartographic colour reproduction as a constrained transform problem, namely, adapting a map’s gamut to fit a device’s gamut while preserving the semiotic quality. First, the characteristics of the map’s gamut are investigated by considering cartographic principles, and the fundamental concerns of preserving semiotic quality are proposed. Then, the self-organizing map method is introduced to iteratively optimize the cartographic colour reproduction. We implement this method and evaluate it based on a series of thematic maps. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm offers better results than two alternatives in terms of facilitating cartographic colour reproduction. 相似文献

顾及密度差异的河系简化 总被引：7，自引：2，他引：7
河系简化是地图综合中经常需要处理的任务,其难点主要在于依据上下文环境对河流进行结构化选取,以保持河网密度差异等宏观特征。提出一种新的河流等级规则,依据河流的各级支流的数量确定河流的等级,以反映河流的密度差异;设计一种结合河流等级、长度与所在层次的综合指标进行河流选取;探讨在自动构建河系树的基础上计算河流等级、所在层次等指标的方法;最后使用综合指标进行河流结构化选取试验。结果表明,以新等级规则为基础的综合指标切实可行,能够在一定程度上保持河网密度的区域差异。 相似文献

地图物体选取的定额模型和结构模型对机助制图综合和地图数据库专家系统中是缺一不可的。结构模型是在选取定额数量的控制下,解决具体选取那些物体,而研究某物体的选取须考虑的因素甚多,並且其间关系是隐会的,普遍存在模糊性。因而采用传统的二值逻辑来处理会既麻烦又损失较多的制图信息。本文以河流选取为例,用模糊集合理论对其建立结构模型进行初步探讨,并用简单样图说明方法和步骤。 相似文献

A real-time map must not contain too much information. Therefore, we need measures of map information that could be guidelines for the selection of data layers and the real-time generalisation process. In this paper we evaluate measures of the amount of information and the distribution of information. The evaluation is performed by (1) defining measures, (2) implementing the measures, (3) computing the measures for some test maps, and finally (4) comparing the values of the measures with human judgement of the map information. For amount of information, we found that the measures number of objects, number of points and object line length had better correspondence with human judgement than object area. We also found that measures based on the size of Voronoi regions of objects (respectively points) can be used for identifying the distribution of information. The results are based on the testing of only building objects. Future work should extend the test, using all object types. 相似文献

This article examines the relationship between scale of observation and landform features and their representation in map form. The research is premised on the idea that large scale features are defined by the smaller features that comprise them (that mountain ranges are a collection of clustered yet individually identifiable mountains or hills). In preference to subjective selection of the higher order features, we propose a methodology for automatically discerning mountain ranges as well as the smaller hills that constitute them. A mountainous region can be defined by its prominence (relative height among surrounding features) and various morphological characteristics including the variability in morphology. The algorithm presented here uses derivatives of elevation and the density of morphological properties in order to automatically identify individual hills or mountains and ranges together with their extents. Being able to create generalised views of landscape morphology is considered to be part of the model generalisation process and is an essential prerequisite to spatial query and to the cartographic portrayal of these features at a range of scales (levels of detail). For the purposes of evaluation the algorithm was applied to the hills around Edinburgh city and the hills and ranges around Fort William, Scotland. The research reflects on the challenge of defining the subjective nature of what is a ‘hill’ or a ‘mountain’, but reminds us that a map seeks to capture the essence and characteristic form of the landscape – something that is necessarily fuzzy and scale dependent. 相似文献

Quality Assessment of Cartographic Generalisation 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：2

This paper proposes a methodology to assess the quality of cartographic generalisa‐tion, which consists of representing geographic space in a simplified way according to the scale and the objectives of the intended map. The automation of this process makes the derivation of data easier, but the quality of the results is often not evaluated. This paper proposes an assessment model based on: (1) characterisation of the data in their initial and final states at different levels of analysis; (2) a data quality assessment by comparison of the two characterisations; and (3) aggregation of the various assessment results to summarise data quality. The assessment algorithm has been implemented and the method has been tested to assess the generalisation of a small urban area. A visualisation tool for assessment of the results has been developed to validate the generalisation evaluation. The results of the research are presented and discussed at the end of the paper. 相似文献

在地图自动编制中,有时多类地图要素多个空间目标之间同时发生空间冲突,在移位过程中会影响到邻近区域的地图目标,这就需要对地图要素移位进行协同处理。在自动识别邻近空间冲突区的条件下,提出了一种顾及地图制图规则的解决地图目标群空间冲突的协同处理方法,并用参数表方法形式化表达了地形图上地图要素移位的常用制图规则。首先利用约束性Delaunay三角网识别出可能的空间冲突区域,并建立移位操作区;然后,建立移位传播关联线网,依据制图规则在关联线网上以能量最小化Beam移位模型为基础,对整个空间冲突区的地图目标群进行协同移位;最后,用实验验证了所提方法的有效性和适用性。 相似文献

Fourier-based multi-scale representation and progressive transmission of cartographic curves on the internet 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
ABSTRACTAutomatic generation of multi-scale representations from the same spatial data source has been the research focus in map generalization for a long time. Based on the Fourier technique, this paper proposes a continuous, multi-scale representation model for progressive transformation of cartographic curves on the Internet. In our method, all the curves, whether closed or open, are depicted as periodical functions which are further expressed as Fourier series. The convergence degrees of the Fourier series are explored for different kinds of curves, and truncating frequencies are derived based on the similarity between the original and reconstructed curves. Using information theory and the Radical Law in cartography, the relationship between map scales and Fourier frequencies is established. Based on the proposed multi-scale model, we also introduce the principles and implementation of a progressive transmission method. Our method is evaluated using the contours from a topographic map. The results show that our model is a valid approach to multi-scale representation of cartographic curves. 相似文献

AbstractA nautical chart is a kind of map used to describe the seafloor morphology and shoreline of adjacent lands. One of its main purposes is to guarantee safety of navigation. As a consequence, the construction of a nautical chart follows very specific rules. The cartographer has to select and highlight undersea features according to their relevance to navigation. In an automated process, the system must be able to identify and classify these features from the terrain model. This paper aims therefore to define ontologies of the submarine relief and nautical chart that will be at the root of a model-oriented generalization process. To the best of our knowledge, no ontology has been defined to formalize the geographical and cartographic objects for nautical chart representation. Thus, a bottom-up approach was developed to extract and model knowledge derived from standards established by the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) and cartographers’ expertise. The submarine relief ontology formalizes undersea features describing the submarine relief. Four concepts (composition, morphometric class, shape value and depth value) are introduced to describe properties and relationships between undersea features. The cartographic representation ontology of nautical charts will define several concepts (chart, features, isobathymetric lines and soundings) for the representation of undersea features on the chart. 相似文献

在地图水系自动综合中河流选取需要建立对不同河流重要性程度的有效判别。由于河流汇水区域直接反映河流的作用空间,因而其面积大小成为关键性的量化指标。目前基于河流的汇水区域自动提取方法主要从河流单一要素出发,按“空间均衡竞争”思想平分河流之间的区域,由于未考虑地形因素使得提取的汇水区域往往存在偏差,而传统基于DEM的汇水区域提取虽然考虑了地形,但没有与河流目标建立显性的对应关系。河流是一种天然的沟谷地性线,与山脊线具有对生互补的空间耦合关系,本文提出了一种等高线簇与河网双要素协同的河流汇水区域提取方法,该方法对河流与等高线的目标集合构建约束Delaunay三角网(CD-TIN)并将三角形分类,对不同类型的三角形分别采用骨架线提取规则与梯度向量引导的分水线搜索规则提取分水线段,连接形成网络结构并依此计算各河段的汇水区域。实验结果表明,本算法能更准确地提取河流汇水区域,从而为河流综合选取提供有效支持。 相似文献

Line generalisation by repeated elimination of points 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
《The Cartographic journal》2013,50(1):46-51
AbstractThis paper presents a new approach to line generalisation which uses the concept of 'effective area' for progressive simplification of a line by point elimination. Two coastlines are used to compare the performance of this, with that of the widely used Douglas-Peucker, algorithm. The results from the area-based algorithm compare favourably with manual generalisation of the same lines. It is capable of achieving both imperceptible minimal simplifications and caricatural generalisations. By careful selection of cut-off values, it is possible to use the same algorithm for scale-dependent and scale-independent generalisations. More importantly, it offers scope for modelling cartographic lines as consisting of features within features so that their geometric manipulation may be modified by application- and/or user-defined rules and weights. The paper examines the merits and limitations of the algorithm and the opportunities it offers for further research and progress in the field of line generalisation. 相似文献

AbstractTo enhance the variety of map symbols and to develop new symbol types, a fundamental understanding of the map symbol construction process is mandatory. Current construction theories focus on diagrams without taking georeferencing or interactivity into account. This paper presents a new methodology for the creation of two-dimensional geometric symbols and diagrams for the application in thematic maps. In this context, 49 diagrams found in cartographic literature were analysed and classified regarding their construction properties. As a result of this research, diagrams can be defined using cartographic primitives which are arranged according to six arrangement principles. Since the variation of the primitive's size according to the data values follows a certain geometric direction, each diagram can be explicitly defined based on the three construction properties 'primitive', 'arrangement principle' and 'data direction'. 相似文献

AbstractA structure recognition technique is presented that can be employed for contextual building and built-up area generalisation in medium-scale topographic maps. Owing to various spatial configurations, a contextual mechanism is necessary to achieve acceptable results in cartographic generalisation. Spatial structures are usually implicit in data, and advanced analysis and processing methods are required to detect them. This technique is based on auxiliary geometric data structures and spatial analysis methods. A case study is performed with a topographic data set, using an interface developed in an object-oriented geographic information system (O-O GIS). The proposed approach was found to assist and improve automation. 相似文献
