The Future in Multi-Resolution Databases:
- Derive multiple representations on the fly.
- More flexibility for the user (e.g., continuous zooming,
incremental updates).
Enabled by:
- Progress in automated generalization and interoperability.
- Faster hardware.
Necessary:
- A mechanism to control that the generalization algorithms produce consistent
results.
