Abstract
The components of map information are analyzed theoretically in this paper, and the map information includes mainly the spatial information, at tributive information and temporal characteristics information. Then the digital map entity is defined according to construction characteristics of the map information. Finally, on the basis of the analyses of the construction characteristics of digital map entity and present conceptual model of digital map database, an abstracted conceptual model of digital map database is presented. And the Normal Form theory of relational database is discussed particularly.
