Large scale road network generalization for vario-scale map

The classical approach for road network generalization consists of producing multiple maps, for a different scale or purpose, from a single detailed data source and quite often roads are represented by line objects. Our target is the generalization of a road network for the whole scale range from large scale, where roads are represented as area...

2D vario-scale representations based on real 3D structure

This paper focuses on 3D data structures supporting an alternative approach for creating 2D vario-scale maps. The smooth animated zooming functionality have lead us to investigate a volumetric representation of gradually changing vario-scale objects. In this paper, the principle of vario-scale maps with theoretical knowledge about 3D...
