Abstract

The conversion of satellite data into vector formats requires classification and interpretation of low-level information while maintaining accuracy of measurement and spatial detail; on the other hand rasterizing a map (which is consistent with satellite data) means decomposition and degradation of high-level cartographic information. Therefore, in combining and integrating image and cartographic data in a data structure, such exchanges should be considered.
