Boundary/Boundary Line
1. Anything referred to in the description of a land parcel which identifies on the ground the limits of the parcel.
2. The legal limit/demarcation between two units of land. Also referred to as Legal Boundary.

Fuzzy Boundary
A boundary that is treated as band of uncertainty.

Generalization
Removal of detail from a data layer to make processing or visualization easier at smaller scales.

[edit] Boundary delineation
The location of a study area boundary and the positioning of internal boundaries affect various descriptive statistics.

Boundary: user identifies an existing boundary feature. Any existing label will be replaced/repositioned as specified by the user. If no label exists, then one is created and added to the boundary feature.
Node: user identifies two nodes.

boundary
A line separating adjacent political entities, such as countries or districts; adjacent tracts of privately-owned land, such as parcels; or adjacent geographic zones, such as ecosystems.

The boundary itself is often stored without any category reference as it can mark the border between two adjacent areas. Thus it would be ambiguous as to which feature the attribute would belong.

The boundary zone between the Great Plains and the eastern Front of the Rocky Mountains is abrupt, with the transition zone generally less than 1-2 km (0.6-1.2 miles) wide.

The boundary file is split up into 2 sections of the municipality: Section 1 and Section 2. The goal of this analysis is to create regions around the hazard locations that are within Section 2.

In cases where a boundary is considered a complex polygon (has more than 10,000 points that define the shape), then the BAO Reports Add-In generalizes, or reduces, the amount of points that define the boundary.

A neatline is the boundary line separating the body of a map from the margin. On quadrangle maps, these are the lines of latitude and longitude that define the extent of the map.

Figure 4 shows that boundary lines are traced directly from a classified SPOT image. Different color regions are traced and put into separate map layers.

Arcs represent lines that can define linear features or the boundary of areas or polygons. In arc-node structures, there is an implied direction to the line so that it may have a left and right side.

Line: A set of ordered co-ordinates that represent the shape of geographic features too narrow to be displayed as an area at the given scale (contours, street centrelines, or streams), or linear features with no area (county boundary lines).

clip The spatial extraction of those features from one coverage that reside entirely within a boundary defined by features in another coverage (called the clip coverage)-clipping works much like a cookie cutter. COGO 1.

The features usually shown on a planimetric map include rivers, lakes, and seas; mountains, valleys, and plains; forests, and prairies; cities, farms transportation routes, and public utility facilities; and political and private boundary lines.

Dependent LocalityA small town or village name sometimes included in an address when the Delivery Point is outside the boundary of the main Post Town that serves it.

Zone 1 has its western boundary at 180 degrees W, with its central meridian at 177 degrees W, and its eastern boundary at 174 degrees W. Likewise, zone 2 has its central meridian at 171 degrees W, zone 3 at 165 degrees W, and so on.

Boundary: the line or zone formed by the edges of two adjacent ecosystems. Corridor: a linear strip of habitat type that differs from that on either side of it.

Zoom to your boundary layer so that you can see your eintire model.
Turn off all layers except for buildings and your boundary.
Use Selection-Clear Selected Features to make sure that nothing is selected.

The lost/destroyed boundary corners were recovered or replaced. Coordinates were computed for all boundary corners using the coordinates established on boundary corners 4, 5, and 6 and the bearings and distances from the deeds.

The total Gaussian curvature of a region on a surface is the angle by which its boundary opens up, when laid out in the plane.

They used two basic data types: the boundary description, and the constructive solid geometry (CSG) [7]. The boundary description is one kind of 3D vector representation while the CSG is a very special 3D tessellation model.

I am probably giving the impression that surveyors are becoming relatively unimportant to Autodesk, and that the sort of 2D drafting that we boundary specialists seem tied to is in danger of disappearing altogether. But that's hardly the case.

Maps and geographic data capture the essence of the geographically particular, the boundary conditions that influence the outcome of physical and social processes; and in that sense GIS illuminates the particular.

As the vehicle-trajectory estimator determines that the likelihood of a lane departure is sufficiently high, a lane-departure warning is issued to the driver through the HUD: a change in lane boundary color from white or yellow to red.

In this application one parcel map and one building boundary map have been created for the prototype. The parcel map contains the parcel number, address, owner's name, SBL number, land use, etc.

Typically, a watershed boundary or perimeter is comprised of ridgetop or high elevation areas. All water runs downhill by the force of gravity, so you can think of a watershed as a drainage basin.

The crust-mantle boundary occurs as two physically different events. Firstly, there is a discontinuity in the seismic velocity which is known as the Mohorovicic discontinuity or Moho.

Plug-ins rely on the host application's user interface and have a well-defined boundary to their possible set of actions[1]. Extensions have fewer restrictions on their actions, and may provide their own user-interfaces.

For example, the edge of one end of a wetland is adjacent to a gravel road, and the gravel road is the boundary on a wildlife management area.

Raster reclassification intrinsically involves boundary dissolving. The dissolving of map boundaries based on a specific attribute value often results in a new data layer being created.

The design of the LCModel program was hampered by the limited ability of MapInfo to build topological relationships from boundary lines and attributes. Currently no capability exists in MapInfo for the conversion of connected polylines into regions.

The boundary of a GT-polygon may be defined by GT-rings created from its bounding chains. A GT-polygon may also be associated with its chains (either the bounding set, or the complete set) by direct reference to these chains.

The four-color theorem states that any map in a plane can be colored using four-colors in such a way that regions sharing a common boundary (other than a single point) do not share the same color.

This can happen along a frontal boundary or if air becomes convectively unstable and rises to form clouds and precipitation. This is why thunderstorms and convective showers often form in a warm, moist airmass.

For example, the GIS (or CAD) operator will trace the boundary of each state with a digitizing tablet or mouse. Boundaries common to pairs of states will therefore be traced twice.

Different features of the topography such as contour lines, boundary lines, rivers, lakes, forest areas, vegetatin areas, dwelling areas, houses, fields, roads, streets, etc, were digitized in specific layers.

By pointing and clicking your mouse within a county's boundary in the graphic below, you can get location/contact information for the M@IN Public Access sites.

polygon : A multisided figure that represents area on a map. A feature defined by the arcs that make up its boundary. Every polygon contains one label point within its boundary.

A coverage feature class used to represent areas. A polygon is defined by the arcs that make up its boundary and a point inside its boundary for identification. Polygons have attributes (PAT) that describe the geographic feature they represent.

Any gaps in a polygon boundary will result in a "topology" error when the shapefile is uploaded to the FPA-PM server. If you get this error and cannot identify or correct the problem, contact a GIS specialist for assistance.

Dissolve - The process of automatically eliminating the boundary between polygons that have identical attribute data. This process is usually carried out to remove the neatlines of digital maps after several maps are joined.
