Evaluation method for an automatic map interpretation system for cadastral maps

A base line system for automatic interpretation of Dutch cadastral maps is discussed. Knowledge of the rules for drawing these maps is incorporated in the system. Also, a method for evaluating this system is presented. This method consists of different parts which subsequently evaluate the vectorization, the performance on finding parcels, and the performance on finding parcel numbers. Parts of this evaluation method may also be applicable for other line drawing interpretation systems.<<ETX>>
