Abstract
Vector
image data formats have some unique functional capabilities, but
spatial
objects are difficult to retrieve on a two-dimensional key. This
article examines a number of strategies for speeding up the object
retrieval
process by partitioning an image into manageable subsets. The
emphasis
is on solutions that can be implemented on microcomputers, for image
data
bases up to about 10 Mb.

manuscript has been transcribed but essentially unchanged from the 1988
paper. The methods are
more than a decade old, but the principles of data structuring are
illuminating
and still valid]
