We consider spatial databases in the plane that can be defined by polynomial constraint formulas. Motivated by applications in geographic information systems, we investigate line...
We consider spatial databases and queries definable using first-order logic and real polynomial inequalities. We are interested in topological queries: queries whose result only ...
The update transactions to be executed in spatial databases have been usually known as interactive and long duration works. When a spatial object has a very large geometry of which...
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 ...
Abstract: Spatial data mining algorithms heavily depend on the efficient processing of neighborhood relations since the neighbors of many objects have to be investigated in a singl...
