The paper contends that the current GIS ontology is not effective for N-dimensional data sets and proposes a mesh-based ontology that is complete and consistent.
The Thesis is that the Current Ontology
- Is inconsistent and incomplete
- Restricts our current use of GIS data and
- Complicates the extension of GIS to true N-Dimensional analysis
The contention is that a mesh based ontology solves these problems
