A characterization of first-order topological properties of planar spatial data (Extended abstract)

Summary: Characterizes first-order topological properties of closed semi-algebraic planar sets expressible in the relational calculus with real polynomial constraints. Shows these properties coincide with a local "point-and-cone" query language that talks only about points and their surrounding angular cones. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
