Wouldn't this work with cost surfaces too? Starting from several points
(the Thiessen centers) with a grid cell cost information raster
containing only the value "one", you get a raster representation of a
classic Thiessen structure. Manipulating the cost information raster ,
you should get something like a weighted Thiessen structure. The last
step would be to extract the boundaries between the polygons in vector
format, with the methods above. Starting from each center point, the
cost surface will rise, until it meets the rising surface from an
adjacent point. At this location, slope becomes zero. These zero slope
areas are effectively the Thiessen polygons, and can be vectorized. For
normal Thiessen polygons, this should be no problem, but I am not sure
what happens with really complex weighted cases. Does anyone have any
experience with this?
