We present a data structure used to represent planar spatial databases in the topological data model. Conceptually, such databases consist of points, lines between these points, an...
Spatial data mining, i.e., discovery of interesting, implicit knowledge in spatial databases, is an important task for understanding and use of spatial data- and knowledge-bases. I...
Abstract. An algorithm for ranking spatial objects according to increasing distance from a query object is introduced and analyzed. The algorithm makes use of a hierarchical spatia...
