There is a pressing need for systems which can manage spatially-referenced data and perform certain types of spatially-oriented processing. As an example, census data are spatially referenced, and there is a standard repertoire of computational steps performed by users of those data such as aggregation of variables over regions defined by polygons. The IBIS (Image-Based Information System) system extends the capability of present systems by adding a new data-type, the image raster, in such a way that it can be used with tabular data bases. Many of the existing computational procedures are simplified or made more accurate when converted to a digital image processing mode of operation and several new computational procedures are made possible. In addition, new methods of data capture and new sources of data are added (e.g., photo-scanning and satellite imagery). |
