The assessment of evolutionary algorithms for analyzing the positional accuracy and uncertainty of maps

作者：

Highlights：

• Maps provide a suitable cartographic base for historical analyses.

• The main problem is the heterogeneity of the quality of historical data.

• The quality of historical maps must be analyzed prior to the application of their information.

• The evolutionary algorithms NSGA-II and msPESA are assessed in this study.

• Solutions obtained by NSGA-II dominate solutions obtained by msPESA.
