Abstract:

To meet the needs of retrieving the geographic information intelligently,a hand-drawn map retrieval method based on open area spatial direction relation is proposed.Firstly,it is designed that a new type of open area spatial direction relation description model and calculation method based on the opening area between the hand-objects,which can be used to hand-drawn map retrieval,both can be adapted to accurately describe by open area,but also through the relaxation strategy to describe the fuzzy relationship.A hand-drawn map retrieval process based on open area spatial direction relation is proposed.The evaluation model,similarity calculation of spatial direction relation and R-tree spatial index are given.The experiment results show that the method can retrieve the top-ranking results effectively in a large scope map scene.

Key words: geographic information retrieval, hand-drawn map, open area spatial direction relation, similarity calculation
