为满足地图生产自动化和GIS中对自动制图综合的迫切需求,必须研究新的理论、方法和模型。在充分探讨制图综合现状和存在问题的基础上,系统研究自动制图综合链理论与技术,把抽象的制图综合操作过程化、任务化、步骤化,并把制图综合任务转化为计算机环境下自动执行与优化的可执行操作链,从而达到提高制图综合自动化、智能化水平的目的。
It is a puzzle for long time that how to improve the automated level of cartographic generalization. In order to meet with the exigent requirement to automated cartographic generalization in automated cartography and GIS, new theory, method and model should be created. After analyzing current research and problems of cartographic generalization, this paper created "automated cartographic generalization chain (ACGC)" theory and technique fully. It translated abstract cartographic generalization course into realizable cartographic generalization tasks, then transformed the tasks into ACGC, which could be executed and optimized by computer automatically. Thus the automatization and intelligence level of cartographic generalization were improved. Experiments illustrate that the theory and technique of ACGC based on knowledge is useful and innovative. It is an important creation in the field of automated cartographic generalization, which affects the theoretic building and improves automatization level of cartographic generalization directly,
