Abstract: Contour interpolation is a commonly used method to improve the accuracy of topographic maps,and plays an important role in map synthesis and other fields.In the actual topographic map database,the contour lines have some complete curves and some fracture curves.Existing contour interpolation studies do not consider the processing of such data.For this reason,this paper proposes an interpolation algorithm based on Fréchet distance.Firstly,the calculation method of the contour relationship is proposed.Then the nodes of the contour are evenly encrypted,and the similarity is judged by the Fréchet distance to select the reference contour.Finally,the interpolation is performed according to the “closest point” method.Experiments on actual data in a certain area of Jiangsu province have verified the rationality of the algorithm and have better adaptability and accuracy for the interpolation of the saddle region.
