Region Connection Calculus
Region Connection Calculus (RCC) is a system intended for qualitative spatial representation and reasoning. It abstractly describes regions in Euclidean or topological space by their possible relations to each other.
Areas of application
- Geographic Information Systems (GIS)
- Robotics and Automation
- Computer Vision
- Artificial Intelligence
- Spatial Databases
- Environmental Modeling
- Computer Aided Design (CAD)
Example
For example, RCC can be used to represent the layout of a city, where regions are defined as areas with specific connections between them (e.g. streets, parks).
