Resumo

Geographic Information Systems have revolutionized geographic research over the past three decades. These systems commonly provide a number of features for processing andanalyzing spatial data, such as spatial join and skyline. Although relevant, the effectiveness of such functionalities is affected by the imprecision of the geographic coordinates obtained by the georeferencing method employed. Moreover, the error contained in the coordinates may present several distributional patterns, which demands the development of solutions that are generalist concerning the error pattern that they can handle properly. Finally, spatial operations are already computationally expensive in their deterministic version, which is aggravated by the introduction of the stochastic component. The pre-sent work presents a general structure of spatial operations solutions robust to imprecise coordinates based on the use of simulations and probabilistic adaptations of heuristics in the literature. In addition, to deal with the problems mentioned, the proposed structure is designed to contemplate the requirements of generality, accuracy and efficiency at levels that enable its practical application. The overall solution structure is composed of the combination of probabilistic versions of heuristics of the deterministic versions of the spatial operations and by Monte Carlo simulations. From that structure, specific solutions - as case studies - are developed for the spatial join and skyline. Theoretical and experimental results demonstrated the potential of the developed solutions to meet the threerequirements established in this work.
