Abstract

The chapter identifies properties that a spatial data model, dedicated to support spatial data for cartography, topography, cadastral and relevant applications, should satisfy. The properties concern the data types, data structures and spatial operations of the model. A survey of various approaches investigates mainly the satisfaction of these properties. An evaluation of each approach against these properties also is included.
