Building patterns are important features that should be preserved in the map generalization
process. However, the patterns are not explicitly accessible to automated systems. This …

Building displacement is a common operation to resolve the spatial conflicts between map
features, and it has important theoretical value and practical application significance for multi …

Adequate representation of cartographic expert knowledge is essential if maps are to be
created in an automated way. Part of this expert knowledge is made up by the structural …

A new method of cartographic line simplification is presented. Regular hexagonal
tessellations are used to sample lines for simplification, where hexagon width, reflecting …

The automation of map generalization has been an important research subject for decades
but is not fully solved yet. Deep learning techniques are designed for various image …

This article presents how a generative adversarial network (GAN) can be employed to
produce a generalised map that combines several cartographic themes in the dense context …

Map** applications display multi-scale maps where zooming in and out triggers the
display of different maps at different scales. Multi-scale maps strongly augmented the …

This paper presents a typification method for linear pattern in urban building generalization.
The proposed method includes two processes. Firstly, structural knowledge in terms of linear …

Building groups with special patterns are common layouts in urban settlement areas, which
should be carefully generalized. Typification is considered as an appropriate operator to …

ABSTRACT Three-dimensional (3D) high-fidelity surface models play an important role in
urban scene construction. However, the data quantity of such models is large and places a …
