This paper proposes a new data model for lines with a broad boundary. The model is helpful for handling uncertainty in spatial data: broad boundaries absorb all the uncertainty by which spatial data are commonly affected and allow computations in presence of uncertainty without rough simplifications of the reality. The proposed model is a basis for the study of topological relations between lines with a broad boundary and can be easily integrated into existing data models for spatial databases.

Abstract

This paper proposes a new data model for lines with a broad boundary. The model is helpful for handling uncertainty in spatial data: broad boundaries absorb all the uncertainty by which spatial data are commonly affected and allow computations in presence of uncertainty without rough simplifications of the reality. The proposed model is a basis for the study of topological relations between lines with a broad boundary and can be easily integrated into existing data models for spatial databases.
