GEOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS

摘要

A digital map is provided with information vertex data structures each storing a location, one or more attributes of the space at that location, and a line identifier; and a plan representing a space and comprising a line drawn on the plan between points corresponding to the locations of a plurality of information vertex data structures. The map provides a bespoke, GIS-based geoscience software system that may include several fully integrated and dynamically linked components to better serve both the geoscientist and data user communities. A bespoke database model coupled with a new method of data attribution allows the full variety and complexity of geoscience data and interpretation to be captured.
