The ease of programming, and thus the common availability of computer programs that display regions filled with colour or texture, or that calculate area, perimeter, or moment-centre, is completely incongruent with the difficulty of producing the data sets required for them to represent the regions. This is termed the 'boundary network' problem. There are many ways, of varying awkwardness, around the problem. The integration of a good boundary network algorithm into the sequence of tasks required to digitize a network of regions will decrease the overall time required to prepare a good data set
