Abstract
Existing models of spatial relations do not consider that different concepts exist
on different levels in a hierarchy and in turn that the spatial relations in a given scene are
a function of the specific concepts considered. One approach to determining the existence
of a particular spatial relation is to compute the corresponding high level concepts explicitly
using map generalization before inferring the existence of the spatial relation in question.
We explore this idea through the development of a model of the spatial relation “enters” that
may exist between a road and a housing estate.
