The Map Maker algorithm which converts survey data into geometric data with 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinates has been previously published. Analysis of the performance of this algorithm is continuing. The algorithm is suitable for generating 2D maps and it would be helpful to have this algorithm generalized to generate 3D and higher dimensional coordinates. The trigonometric approach of the Map Maker algorithm does not extend well into higher dimensions however this paper reports on an algebraic approach which solves the problem. A similar algorithm called the Coordinatizator algorithm has been published which converts survey data defining a higher dimensional space of measured sites into the lowest dimensionalcoordinatization accurately fitting the data. Therefore the Coordinatizator algorithm is not a projection transformation whereas the n-dimensional Map Maker algorithm is.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Computational Geometry & Applications (IJCGA) is a quarterly journal devoted to the field of computational geometry within the framework of design and analysis of algorithms.
Emphasis is placed on the computational aspects of geometric problems that arise in various fields of science and engineering including computer-aided geometry design (CAGD), computer graphics, constructive solid geometry (CSG), operations research, pattern recognition, robotics, solid modelling, VLSI routing/layout, and others. Research contributions ranging from theoretical results in algorithm design — sequential or parallel, probabilistic or randomized algorithms — to applications in the above-mentioned areas are welcome. Research findings or experiences in the implementations of geometric algorithms, such as numerical stability, and papers with a geometric flavour related to algorithms or the application areas of computational geometry are also welcome.
