COMPARISON BETWEEN THE DOUBLE BUFFER METHOD AND THE EQUIVALENT RECTANGLE METHOD FOR THE QUANTIFICATION OF DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN LINEAR FEATURES
Abstract Currently, in Brazil, for the assessment of the Positional Accuracy of non-point features (lines and polygons), there is no standard norm of execution. This work aims to compare the results of two methodologies that allow determining the average value of the discrepancies between linear features. The first, Equivalent Rectangle Method, aims to determine the discrepancy by considering an equivalent rectangle for the polygon obtained from the two homologous lines. The second, Double Buffer Method applies a buffer on both lines and obtains the average discrepancy value based on the relation of the areas of the generated polygons. These methods were compared in two steps. Initially, an experiment was performed with features of known measurements, where the displacement of the homologous lines was controlled in azimuth and distance. In this step, it was verified that the shape of the feature and the direction of the displacement interfere in the results of both methods when compared to the traditional procedure of measurement of discrepancies by homologous points. In the second stage, we evaluated the vector data of the OpenStreetMap (class of roads), with reference to a more accurate vector dataset produced for the Mapping of the State of Bahia. As a result, for the 1:25,000, 1:50,000, 1:100,000 and 1:250,000 scales, it was obtained, respectively, the PEC-PCD for the Equivalent Rectangle Method "C", "B", "A" and "A" and the PEC-PCD for the Double Buffer Method "R", "C", "B" and "A", where "R" means that it has not achieved the minimum PEC-PCD classification.
