Towards constraint formulation for chorematic schematisation tasks - work in progress
Andreas W. Reimer, Joachim Fohringer · 2010
For our research on chorematic diagrams and their automatised construction, we strive for a formal definition of chorematic diagrams. One approach for such a formal definition is to define generalisation constraints on their graphical, topological and geometric attributes. During our previous work, it became clear that the generalisation needs of chorematic diagrams are only partially covered by current cartographic constraint models. In this work in progress, we delineate the main schematisation tasks and show which can and which cannot be modelled with current constraint measures. We go on to make suggestions on how to extend existing constraint models correspondingly.
