Sampling from spatial databases

Proceedings of IEEE 9th International Conference on Data Engineering, 1995
This paper deals with techniques for obtaining random point samples from spatial databases. We seek random points from a continuous domain (usually ℝ2) which satisfy a spatial predicate that is represented in the database as a collection of polygons. Several applications of spatial sampling (e.g.

GIS Databases: Spatial and Non-spatial

2019
In this chapter, you will learn about the type and management of databases in a GIS environment. After reading this chapter you should be able to understand the following: Types of GIS database—spatial and non-spatial Representation of spatial features of the Earth’s surface by vector and raster data structures (point, line and polygon ...

Spatial Databases

2007
Spatial database research has continued to advance greatly since three decades ago, addressing the growing data management and analysis needs of spatial applications. This research has produced a taxonomy of models for space, conceptual models, spatial query languages and query processing, spatial file organization and indexes, and spatial data mining.

A spatial database as a component of integrated database system

Proceedings 1999 International Symposium on Database Applications in Non-Traditional Environments (DANTE'99) (Cat. No.PR00496), 2003
Huge amounts of spatial data have been accumulated by government agencies and other organizations for various kinds of applications, such as land information management, asset and facility management, resource management, and environment management. These data are typically collected, stored and used by different custodians for very specific purposes ...

Consistency in Spatial Databases

2005
During the past several years, traditional databases have been enhanced to include spatially referenced data. Spatial database management (SDBM) systems aim at providing models for the efficient manipulation of data related to space. Such type of manipulation is useful for any type of applications based on large spatial data sets, such as computer ...

Air Indexes for Spatial Databases

2009
SYNONYMS None DEFINITION Air indexes refer to indexes employed in wireless broadcast environments to address scalability issue and to facilitate power saving on mobile devices [3]. To retrieve a data object in wireless broadcast systems, a mobile client has to continuously monitor the broadcast channel until the data arrives. This will consume a lot of

Query Processing in Spatial Databases

2005
Spatial data management has been an active area of intensive research for more than two decades. In order to support spatial objects in a database system, several important issues must be taken into account such as spatial data models, indexing mechanisms, and efficient query processing. A spatial database system (SDBS) is a database system that offers

Integrity Constraints in Spatial Databases

2002
This chapter addresses the relationship that exists between the nature of spatial information, spatial relationships, and spatial integrity constraints, and proposes the use of OMT-G (Borges et al., 1999; Borges et al., 2001), an object-oriented data model for geographic applications, at an early stage in the specification of integrity constraints in ...
