Hypergraph-based object-oriented model and hypergraph theory for GIS

This paper discusses the features and relevant theories of GIS spatial data model based on hypergraph, etc. The integrated concept model based on hypergraph and object-oriented model (HOOM) is proposed by the authors. The principal contribution of this paper is that we study theK-section and other theories of hypergraph. An application example using HOOM is given at the end of the paper.
