Spatial Tessellations - Concepts and Applications of Voronoi Diagrams

Das hervorragend eingeführte Übersichtswerk zur räumlichen Datenanalyse mit Hilfe von Voronoi-Diagrammen ist nun in stark erweiterter Neuauflage erschienen! Die Autoren diskutieren verschiedenste Originalarbeiten und Ansätze, ohne spezielle Schwerpunkte zu setzen - so entstand ein sehr ausgewogenes Werk. Ausgehend von den mathematischen Grundbegriffen werden verallgemeinerte Voronoi-Diagramme, räumliche Interpolationen, Manipulationen multivariater Daten, Modellierungen räumlicher Muster und viele andere Aspekte dargestellt.

About the author

Atsuyuki Okabe is the author of Spatial Tessellations: Concepts and Applications of Voronoi Diagrams, 2nd Edition, published by Wiley. Barry Boots is the author of Spatial Tessellations: Concepts and Applications of Voronoi Diagrams, 2nd Edition, published by Wiley.

Summary

Spatial data analysis is a fast growing area and Voronoi diagrams provide a means of naturally partitioning space into subregions to facilitate spatial data manipulation, modelling of spatial structures, pattern recognition and locational optimization.
