    Therefore, compilers will attempt to transform the first form into the second; this type of optimization is known as map fusion and is the functional analog of loop fusion. [2] Map functions can be and often are defined in terms of a fold such as foldr, which means one can do a map-fold fusion: foldr f z . map g is equivalent to foldr (f .

  3. Geographic information system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_Information_System

    Example of hardware for mapping (GPS and laser rangefinder) and data collection (rugged computer). The current trend for geographical information system (GIS) is that accurate mapping and data analysis are completed while in the field. Depicted hardware (field-map technology) is used mainly for forest inventories, monitoring and mapping.

  4. Simultaneous localization and mapping - Wikipedia

    2005 DARPA Grand Challenge winner Stanley performed SLAM as part of its autonomous driving system. A map generated by a SLAM Robot. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is the computational problem of constructing or updating a map of an unknown environment while simultaneously keeping track of an agent's location within it.

    The Laboratory's Odyssey project created a geographic information system that served as a milestone in the development of integrated mapping systems. [2] The Laboratory influenced numerous computer graphic, mapping and architectural systems such as Intergraph, Computervision, and Esri. [3]

  6. Self-organizing map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-organizing_map

    A self-organizing map (SOM) or self-organizing feature map (SOFM) is an unsupervised machine learning technique used to produce a low-dimensional (typically two-dimensional) representation of a higher-dimensional data set while preserving the topological structure of the data.

  7. Occupancy grid mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupancy_grid_mapping

    Occupancy Grid Mapping refers to a family of computer algorithms in probabilistic robotics for mobile robots which address the problem of generating maps from noisy and uncertain sensor measurement data, with the assumption that the robot pose is known. Occupancy grids were first proposed by H. Moravec and A. Elfes in 1985.

  8. Geographic information system software - Wikipedia

    The thematic map types that could be generated by SYMAP. Perhaps the first general-purpose software that provided a range of GIS functionality was the Synagraphic Mapping Package (SYMAP), developed by Howard T. Fisher and others at the nascent Harvard Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Spatial Analysis starting in 1965.

  9. Computer cartography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cartography

    The mapping software outputs a real-time visual representation of the route. The map then moves along the path of the driver. If the driver drifts from the designated route, the navigation system will use the current coordinates to recalculate a route to the destination location.
