Foreword
This book is the selected papers of the 14th International Symposium on Spatial
Data Handling that was held at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in Hong
Kongfrom26to28May2010asaJointInternationalConferenceonTheory,Data
HandlingandModellinginGeoSpatialInformationScienceorganizedbyCommis-
sion on Geographical Information Science and Commission on Modelling Geo-
graphicalSystemsoftheInternationalGeographicalUnion(IGU)andCommissionII
oftheInternationalSocietyofPhotogrammetryandRemoteSensing(ISPRS).
The International Symposium on Spatial Data Handling (SDH) is the premier
biennialinternationalresearchforumforGeographicalInformationScience(GISc)
oftheCommissiononGeographicalInformationScienceofIGU.Itwasfirstheldin
1984 in Zurich, Switzerland, when the Commission was named as Geographical
DataSensingandProcessingchairedbyProf.DuaneMarble.Ithasquicklybecame
