  • 1.3 Spatial-Temporal data model

  • What are spatio-temporal data models?

    They are ways of organizing representations of space and time in a GIS
  • What are spatio-temporal analysis?

    Consideration of changes of spatial and thematic attributes over time
  • What is object motion?

    Both spatial and attribute domains are variable and consider how fields or objects have changed over time

  • Where should you be aware of with data manipulation?

    Almost always will the data in both expected and unexpected ways, in many instances resulting in some loss of information
  • What is T-mode data?

    The recording of complete spatial fields at distinct points in time, views as a set of time slices (typically in fixed time intervals)
  • What is S-mode analysis?

    Is complete spatial fiels recorded at distinct points in time, viewd as a set of point locations or pixels, each of which has a temporal profile --> space-time cube

  • What is distance measurement?

    The computation of the minimal distance between a location occupied by the first feature and a location occupied by the second feature

    Is associated with polygon features.

  • What are Thiessen polygons?

    Polygons that make use of geomeric distance neighbourhoods. This is useful if we have a spatially distributed set of points as target locations and we want to know the closest target for each location in the study. . This technique will generate a polygon around each target location that identifies all those locations that “belong to” that target.
