Finding Analogous Structures in Cartographic Data.
In: 4th AGILE Conference on Geographic Information Science, 19-21 April 2001, Brno.
Abstract
In this paper we describe the application of analogical structure matching
techniques to the domain of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Automatic
categorisation of map data into roads, buildings etc. is currently based on isolated objects.
We describe how identifying analogous clusters of objects can categorise ambiguous
polygons by introducing context into the categorisation process. We describe a number of
GIS classification tasks that can be performed by analogical structure matching, resulting
in a useful classification tool that operates in a cognitively plausible manner.
