Abstract： It is difficult to determine the complex polygonal boundary information only through the line-polygon topology. In view of this situation, the authors proposed a sorting algorithm based on the judgment of minimum angle to get the orderly boundary of complex polygon. As the polygon boundaries are usually irregular curves in the investigation of land use，the authors introduced the curve tangent to get the angle and to determine the next boundary according to the size of the angle，which can solve the sorting processing problems of complex polygonal boundaries，such as multi-edge sharing of a common node which includes islands holes, etc.， to meet the requirements of VCT data production in the land use investigation.
