Summary: | These proceedings (26 contributions) reflect the broadened range of spatial database applications of the past few years, in particular, geographic applications, as the market for geographic information systems grows. Developments have been spurred by progress in hardware technology and in database management, computational geometry, and computer graphics, as well as the drive for environmental protection which requires the collection and management of huge amounts of environmental data.
