Blog-Eintrag vom Januar, 2020

I got a point cloud representing the early medieval sites in Brandenburg (about 7000). They cluster roughly like displayed below.

There are some articles (e.g. Nakoinz 2015) about how to deduce networks from clusters like this, by generating cluster centroids and using a Delaunay-triangulation on those. However, they usually don't go into too much detail. Has anyone worked with something like this before or can give me hints on literature or methodology.

What I would like to get in the end is an approximation of the most likely spatial network, which I would like to compare to the cost surface of the area. My guess would be that network connections would be stronger along paths with lower costs.
