抄録

It is possible to show shapes of buildings at small scale using GIS (Geographic Information System). But shapes may be distorted at very small scale. This problem is known as a vector to raster transformation problem. This paper deals with the problem from an information point of view. First of all, a model concerning theoretical model to display building information is discussed. Then Information of a building on display and Entropy of a group of buildings are defined. Using data of buildings of Hanshin-Awaji-Daishinsai, the case study is done for two kinds of display; computer display data laser plotter. The result shows that shape of buildings should not be displayed at a scale less than 1/30,000.
