Abstract

The spatial relations “left-of” and “right-of” are important for distinguishing relative positions of objects within and with respect to elements of plane embedded networks such as networks of streets. We present a representation of the “left/right” relations that is suitable for use in sketch-to-metric map alignment. The new representation is based on a new family of qualitative spatial calculi called \(\mathcal {ULSTRA}\). Although left/right relations have already been formalized for line segments in the Dipole Relation Algebra (\(\mathcal {DRA}\)) family of qualitative spatial calculi, the distinctions made by those calculi are too strong for applications such as sketch-to-metric map alignment. We show in an empirical evaluation that performing sketch-to-metric map alignment with the new representation is more effective than using the original \(\mathcal {DRA}\) calculi.
