Title
A General Object-Oriented Model for Spatial Data
Abstract
Spatial data models have been extensively studied during the last decade. However, requirements of a spatial database system regardless of any specific application, have not received much attention. In this paper, a general Object-Oriented spatial data model is introduced. This model considers a spatial database system in general, without focusing on specific features or applications, and presents a new method for classification of spatial objects into maps. The concept of map as defined here, is an appropriate definition for objects with arbitrary set of spatial components. This concept is similar to the one of a map in the real world. Map definition is followed by the definition of map hierarchy and operations on maps which can be used to answer queries that might be too complicated otherwise.
