Abstract :
Qualitative and relational representations of space offer a new and powerful approach to reasoning. This type of approach introduces ambiguity where there would be none in quantitative methodologies. Mechanisms for coping with ambiguity and examples of using these mechanisms for reasoning about space are given here
