MapGenOnto: A Shared Ontology for Map Generalisation and Multi-Scale Visualisation
Résumé
The usefulness of ontologies for map generalisation and on-demand mapping has been acknowledged by the research community for now more than ten years. But past attempts to build an ontology that shares the conceptualisation views of the community have fell short for now, maybe due to a lack of direct use cases. MapGenOnto is a new attempt to gather researchers around a shared ontology that covers the description of the geography and the map, and also the generalisation processes used to generalise this map. This short paper briefly describes the backbone concepts of this ontology, and then presents a use case to describe cross-platform ScaleMaster2.0 specifications.
