Abstract:

Neighbourhood relational graphs are widely used in Geosciences. Given a set of spatial objects (vertices) in the plane together with a set of spatial obstacles and spatial facilitators in straight-line edges, the constrained Delaunay graph (CD-graph) is an undirected graph representing the spatial adjacency and neighbourhood relation of objects. CD-graph is an approximated triangulation of vertices with the following properties: (1) the obstacles are included in the graph as some barrier edges that block the connection of the objects on both sides of the obstacles, and the facilitators are included in the graph as some nontrivial edges that connect the objects that are broken by the obstacles; (2) it is as close as possible to the Delaunay triangulation (D-TIN). CD-graph can be used to represent the spatial adjacency and neighbourhood relation of objects with constraints. A theoretical contrast is conducted to differentiate CD-graph, arbitrary (unconstrained) D-TIN and constrained D-TIN. Meanwhile, a two-step constraint-embedding algorithm is proposed to build CD-graph in optimal O(n log n) time by using divide-and-conquer technique. Subsequently, the Voronoi diagram and D-TIN-based k-order neighbours is extended in CD-graph to express different scales of spatial adjacency and neighbourhood relation of objects. CD-graph can be widely used in geographical applications, such as spatial interpolation, spatial clustering and spatial decision support.
