高端微型技术的出现，加上大规模数字地理数据产品的日益可用性，已经产生了对技术和方法的需求，这些技术和方法有助于为移动GIS应用程序量身定制地图的自动生成。本文主要研究原理图的自动生成问题。原理图是基于网络的线性抽象的图解表示。在移动地图的背景下，它们被视为显示交通网络的一种特别有用的手段。本文介绍了一种自动生成原理图的算法。该算法利用了模拟退火优化技术。最后给出了算法的实现，并给出了实验结果。
The advent of high‐end miniature technology, together with the increasing availability of large scale digital geographic data products, has created a demand for techniques and methodologies that assist in the automated generation of maps specifically tailored to mobile GIS applications. This paper concerns itself with the problem of automatic generation of schematic maps. Schematic maps are diagrammatic representations based on linear abstractions of networks. In the context of mobile mapping they are seen as being a particularly useful means of displaying transportation networks. This paper describes an algorithm that automates the production of schematic maps. The algorithm makes use of the simulated annealing optimisation technique. An implementation of the algorithm is also presented, together with experimental results.
