Abstract

We present a process for reconstructing object configurations described by a set of spatial constraints of the form (A northeast B) into a two-dimensional grid. The reconstruction process is cognitively easy for a person to fulfill and guides the user to avoid typical mistakes. For underspecified object configuration descriptions we suggest a strategy to handle coarse object relationships by representing a coarse object in a way that all disjunctive basic relationships that the coarse relationship consists of are represented within one reconstruction.
