Hierarchical structures are conceptually imposed on space and allow performance of complex tasks in very large contexts easily. Hierarchical spatial reasoning is an important method for solving spatial problems. This paper briefly discusses the definition and frame of hierarchical spatial reasoning and its application to way-finding of road networks.展开更多
