Abstract :
The direction relation is an important researching area in spatial relation so it has received more and more attentions than ever. In this paper we have extended the model further and offered that direction relations were explained by direction relation matrix. Moreover we have thorough researched the composing of atomic cardinal direction relations and presented methods for composing of atomic cardinal direction relations, which differs from traditional methods, which using composition tables for direction relations.
