Abstract:
Extracting the split line of narrow and long patches is important for the generalization of land-use thematic data. There are two commonly used methods for extracting the split lines: One is based on Delaunay triangulation and the other is based on straight skeletons. However, it is difficult for the straight skeleton method to preserve geometric structure and topological consistency with the original data when dealing with polygons that have irregularity and complexity of junctions. Therefore, we propose an improved jitter elimination and topology correction method for split lines based on a constrained Delaunay triangulation. First, a split line adjustment algorithm based on the geometric structure of the polygon is proposed to eliminate the jitters. Second, a split line topology correction algorithm is proposed for nodes with degree 1 or degree 2, considering the boundary topological constraint. The reliability of the proposed method is verified by comparing it with the straight skeleton method using sample data and the superiority of the proposed method is verified by using actual data from China’s geographical conditions census in the Guizhou province.
