5. TOPOLOGY CONSISTENCY
All the feature extraction modules include the necessary tools
for the data collection (point, line, polygon and text entities).
Each vector element has associated a code that allows
grouping the different types of elements that have been
captured and the color and width are automatically assigned.
The color and width configurations can be configured by the
user.
The system includes several assistant tools that allow the
drawing of basic elements (arc, perpendicular to a determined
line, 3 point circle, 3 point rectangle, ...). Two different
options can be used in the capture of linear elements, the
discrete mode (point to point) or the continuous mode
(continuous line), also the system incorporate several snap
utilities (automatic or semiautomatic) in order to guarantee a
correct connection between elements.
It is possible to associated alphanumeric information
(attributes) to the captured features in order to use this
information in Geographical Information Systems.
There are several necessary tools for modification and edition
of the captured features (figure 7):
- Delete element
- Recover deleted element
- Move element
- Copy element
- Edit vertex (linear or polygon features)
= Edit text
- Edit Attributes
- Partial deletion of linear or polygon features
- Break elements
- Find text
152
- Element information query
- Code element change
All the measurement and edition tools allow for the automatic
movement of the visualization image position, when the
cursor is near to the edge of the display, the image will be re-
centered. The speed cursor is also configurable.
The visualization of the vector information can be
activated/deactivated according to the associated code. The
system also includes several tools for checking topology of
the extracted features, such as, for example, code and
attributes verification, dangle nodes, ... . All the vector and
alphanumerical information that it is collected with this
system can be exported to other formats.
6. BUSINESS MODEL
The end user license agreement is not based on the traditional
system in which the licenses are associated with a particular
computer and are autonomous.
In this case the software is associated to a determined project
and it is supplied to the final user (in a CD or via Internet)
that includes the project images and associated orientation or
registration data. There can be as many users as needed for
the particular project. The basic licensing concept is project
associated license and can be duplicated in many computers
as the user needs.
The license includes the personification according to the
specific uses or needs to the user or project. Only those
characteristics that the user really needs will be supplied in
the program.
