Abstract
This paper describes the design of an object-oriented geographic information system called GODOT (Geographic Data Management With Object-Oriented Techniques).
GODOT has a four-layer architecture, consisting of (i) a commercial object-oriented database system; (ii) an extensible kernel with classes and methods for representing complex spatial and non-spatial data objects; (iii) a collection of base components for query processing, graphics, database administration, and data exchange; and (iv) several user interface modules.
The conceptual basis for the system is a data model with three categories of objects: Thematic objects, geometric objects, and graphic objects.
The GODOT approach facilitates the management of complex geographic and environmental information and leads to an extensible system architecture.
