Research exploring the object-oriented paradigm as a tool with which to model location of objects in maps is reported. The research led us into three areas:
- the use of an object-oriented language, Smalltalk.-80 to model cadastral location using the object-oriented paradigm.
- study of the development of spatial information systems, such as engineering design and computer-aided design(CAD) database systems based on object-oriented ideas, to see how that approach might be useful for developing a mapping system.
- Finally, the conceptual exploration of how an object-oriented approach might facilitate linkages of location among layers of a land information system.
Future research is needed …
