Re: [JPP-Devel] Shape analysis using area-perimeter ratio

2011-04-28 Thread Larry Becker
Hi Michaël and Martin,

  Thanks for confirming that this is a valid shape analysis technique.  The
great thing about this list is getting instant access to a large depth and
breadth of algorithmic knowledge.

  My current requirement is to sort a list of CAD figures into either
linestring or polygon shapefiles.  (BTW, I'm not doing this in JUMP at the
present time, but in an external program, so I apologize for the off-topic
post.)  The CAD figures are not composed of lines, thank goodness, so a
graph analysis is not necessary.

  Without applying some kind of algorithm, the only available technique is
to check to see if the figure is closed.  This caused a problem with utility
loops  (i.e. water lines) showing up as polygons.  Putting in an area
threshold check partially solved that problem (utility loops are large), but
caused large pavement polygons to show up as linestrings.  I'm betting on
the fact that pavement polygons tend to be long and thin, and utility loops
tend to be more circular, although this has yet to be conclusively
demonstrated.  However, the technique doesn't have to be fool-proof to save
time.  It just has to be right about 80% of the time.

regards,

Larry

  We implemented this as part of the JCS Conflation Suite (which was the
 reason JUMP was originally developed!)

 There's a whole body of theory around shape recognition - much of which is
 very complicated and hard to implement/use.  The circularity ratio is one of
 the more usable techniques.

 I had a need to classify polygon shapes into general categories such as
 roads and buildings, and I though it might be possible to use a thinness
 factor calculated using the area and perimeter.  After fooling around with
 it for a while and not getting the answer, I goggled and found the following
 solution:

  lCircularity ratio: the ratio of the area of the shape to the area of a
 circle (the most compact shape) having the same perimeter. (area-perimeter
 ratio)

 M = ( 4 * Pi * Area of Polygon) / (Perimeter of Polygon)^2

 For a circle, the ratio is one; for a square, it is π / 4; for an
 infinitely long and narrow shape, it is zero.

 I found it at: http://ce.sharif.edu/~alamgir/

 Further searches indicate that this method of classification may be
 relatively unknown.  Does anyone have knowledge in this area?

 Larry Becker

Can you give me a pointer to the package(s) in JTS test builder that
we'd want to look at for code to port to OJ for the grid?

Thanks,

 Yes, in the JTS TestBuilder the finest grid is the one snapped to.  It's

 But... the user doesn't ask to snap to a particular grid.  The
 snapping is always to the grid displayed, which depends on zoom level.

 I've found this to be more flexible and easier to use than having a
 single defined snapping grid.  But the two can coexist happily - just
 display the user-defined grid as well as the variable-size grid.  And
 allow any or all to be enabled.

Re: [JPP-Devel] Btter Display/Snapping grid?

2011-04-28 Thread Martin Davis
There's two parts to this concept - snapping to a dynamic grid, and 
displaying a dynamic grid to show several magnitiudes of grid levels at 
once.

For the Dynamic Grid rendering code, see:

http://jts-topo-suite.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jts-topo-suite/trunk/jts/java/src/com/vividsolutions/jtstest/testbuilder/ui/render/GridRenderer.java?view=log



For the snapping code, see the method

public Point2D toModel(Point2D viewPt) {

and the method snapScale()

in

http://jts-topo-suite.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jts-topo-suite/trunk/jts/java/src/com/vividsolutions/jtstest/testbuilder/Viewport.java?view=log
