N2 - To attain Area Information Management (AIM) capability, a system user must first create digital representations of maps for storage and processing. The digital conversion process requires first encoding and then verifying topological networks. Then, for a polygon processing system to be truly useful in any application, the user must be able to quickly produce and analyze graphic results on the screen. This requires real-time processing and an easy-to-follow user interface with the computer. The abstract refers to a software package capable of geometry-based polygon construction, overlay and production as they compare to the characteristics of currently-available computerized polygon processing products.
