    • 2000, Jonathan Raper, Multidimensional Geographic Information Science, page 190:
      Since the hypermap does not impose integrity constraints or planar enforcement of geometry in its design, there is a flexibility in the implementation that is attractive when the overall size of the multimedia database is not too great.
