POSITIONAL ERROR CURVES BAND OF A PLANAR LINE SEGMENT WITHIN GISs

摘要

In this paper, the positional error curve of point features was extended to an error curves band of line segment features. Firstly, the constitution and shape of the error curves band were analyzed. On this basis, the general boundary curve formula of that band was derived. Secondly, the visualizing error curves bands were realized through three exam- ples. Finally,area index has been examined by comparing numerical results from error curves band and error ellipes band.
