Abstract:Dynamic segmentation is an important technique in the dynamic analysis, displaying of linear features in Geographic Information System for transportation. In this paper, a spatiotemporal dynamic segmentation model has been put forward. Dynamic segmentation system will be merged into temporal factor, and the temporal information in the attribute tables as a field will be restored, and the temporal maintenance of physical arcs by temporal GIS techniques will be reconciled. In the logic model, the relationships between objects in spatiotemporal dynamic segmentation model are provided and the necessary attribute fields and operations are defined according to the class diagram in Unified Modeling Language . The topologic relations related to the spatiotemporal dynamic segmentation model are also introduced based on the onedimension expression of the linear reference system. Experimental results show that the spatiotemporal dynamic segmentation model make up the other models defects of divided spatiotemporal segmentation mode into time reference and space reference, and combine the multiple attributes with physical entities.
