Abstract
It has been mentioned in Chap. 1 that this book mainly aims at solving three problems: (1) fundamental theory of spatial similarity relations in multiscale map spaces, (2) calculation approaches/models/measures of spatial similarity relations in multiscale map spaces, and (3) application of the theories of spatial similarity relations in automated map generalization. Now that the first two problems have been touched, it is pertinent to address the third one which includes the following three important issues.
