Description

The operator select_region_spatialselect_region_spatialSelectRegionSpatialSelectRegionSpatialselect_region_spatial chooses the regions from Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 which are sufficient for the neighboring relation DirectionDirectionDirectiondirectiondirection. The regions to be examined have to be passed in Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1 or Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2, respectively. Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1 can have three different states:

Possible values for DirectionDirectionDirectiondirectiondirection are:

'left'"left""left""left""left":

Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 is left of Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1

'right'"right""right""right""right":

Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 is right of Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1

'above'"above""above""above""above":

Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 is above Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1

'below'"below""below""below""below":

Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 is below Regions1Regions1Regions1regions1regions_1

The operator select_region_spatialselect_region_spatialSelectRegionSpatialSelectRegionSpatialselect_region_spatial calculates the centers of the regions to be compared and decides according to the angle between the center straight lines and the x axis whether the direction relation is fulfilled. The relation is fulfilled within the area of -45 degree to +45 degree around the coordinate axes. Thus, the direction relation can be understood in such a way that the center of the second region must be located left (or right, above, below) of the center of the first region. The indices of the regions fulfilling the direction relation are located at the n-th position in RegionIndex1RegionIndex1RegionIndex1regionIndex1region_index_1 and RegionIndex2RegionIndex2RegionIndex2regionIndex2region_index_2, i.e., the region with the index RegionIndex2RegionIndex2RegionIndex2regionIndex2region_index_2[n] has the indicated relation with the region with the index RegionIndex1RegionIndex1RegionIndex1regionIndex1region_index_1[n]. Access to regions via the index can be obtained via the operator copy_objcopy_objCopyObjCopyObjcopy_obj.

Execution Information

  • Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
  • Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
  • Processed without parallelization.

Result

The operator select_region_spatialselect_region_spatialSelectRegionSpatialSelectRegionSpatialselect_region_spatial returns the value 2 ( H_MSG_TRUE) if Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 is not empty. The behavior in case of empty parameter Regions2Regions2Regions2regions2regions_2 (no input regions available) is set via the operator set_system('no_object_result',<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)SetSystem("no_object_result",<Result>)set_system("no_object_result",<Result>). The behavior in case of empty region (the region is the empty set) is set via set_system('empty_region_result',<Result>)set_system("empty_region_result",<Result>)SetSystem("empty_region_result",<Result>)SetSystem("empty_region_result",<Result>)set_system("empty_region_result",<Result>). If necessary an exception is raised.
