Abstract :
The paper presents a spatial logic, called PISL-2D, and an implementation of its inference engine, called SpInE. The approach can be used to represent spatial knowledge in a 2-dimensional space using a set of qualitative spatial relations. The formalism is based on a point-interval logic and a graphical representation, called Point Graphs. The graph representation is used by SpInE to verify and infer spatial knowledge.
