Seminar Geo-information and Computational Geometry
The Netherlands Geodetic Commission (NCG, part of the Royal Netherlands
Academy of Arts and Sciences; KNAW) and Geo Information Netherlands (GIN)
has organized a one day seminar 'Geo-information and Computational Geometry' on 14 November 2005.
The seminar was held in the Blauwe Zaal in the Wentgebouw, known as the 'De
Ponskaart', at Utrecht University,
The Netherlands.
The main purpose was to show several different aspects related to spatial
data structures and algorithms, which are normally not directly visible to
the GIS end-users. The seminar was intended for a more technology-oriented
audience, though the presenters are asked to find right balance not
explaining all (basic) details and presenting the technology in a
comprehensible manner.
