Abstract
En 中文
Geographic meshing system is an essential technology in the digital earth framework and has essential applications in the integration and organization of heterogeneous spatial data, along with corresponding coding method. But current meshing and coding methods show unsatisfying locality and performance. To make an improvement, an adaptive Hilbert-Geohash meshing and coding method called AHG is proposed, which could represent both the location and the approximate size of the coded object directly by the meshing hierarchy and the corresponding coding length. This unique feature helps to accelerate the spatial range query and neighbor query. By simple string operations, many candidate objects that do not meet the query criteria can be quickly filtered out without precise spatial calculation. In addition, AHG code can also support spatial size query by finding objects whose size is within a certain interval quickly, without calculating the precise size of each object, which brings great convenience to spatial size statistics of a massive spatial dataset. Demonstrated by experiments over different types of the spatial dataset in a common PC environment, AHG shows favorable stability and scalability besides its capability in accelerating spatial query. The method is now applied successfully in several spatial query tools in a high-performance geographic information system called HiGIS.
