Abstract
This paper focuses on spatial query optimization in distributed GIS. A new qualitative spatial relation model and its consistency problem solution which compose topology, direction, distance and size are proposed. Research integrating the four aspects has not appeared before. A new method to deduce the constraints of spatial query is given, thus saves the query process time in distributed GIS. Finally, The methods and theories are applied to a distributed GIS project, the experiment result is satisfactory.
