Abstract
Recently, a compression algorithm is widely used as a method for compressing geographic information data. However, such a compression algorithm has a problem that the continuity of the map data is insufficient to actually apply it to the geographic information data compression, and the compression rate is lowered because it can not be compressed into a single data. Therefore, in this paper, we have designed and implemented a Run-Length / Byte-Packing compression algorithm that enables compression of geographic information by combining the advantages of compression algorithms and improves compression and restoration speed. As a result of evaluating the implemented algorithm, it was confirmed that the proposed algorithm improved about 5% on average compared with the existing compression algorithm, and it was confirmed that the compression rate and the restoration speed were improved.
