Abstract

Large 2D vector maps require huge storage space when they are represented by topological data structures of type DCEL. The drawback of more compact representations is the lack of efficiency for navigating through the map. In this paper, an algorithm is given for traveling around any vertex v on a compressed vector map in time linear in the degree of v.
