Spatial Analysis With GIS
GIS is devised and designed to support optimally a wide range of different
kinds of analyses of geographic information: techniques to examine and explore
data from a geographic perspective, to develop and test models, and to present
data in ways that lead to greater insight and better understanding. All
of these elegant techniques fall under the canopy of "spatial analysis".
A GIS can be used to depict two- and three-dimensional characteristics
of the Earth's surface, subsurface, and atmosphere from information points.
A GIS can recognize and analyze the spatial relationships which exist
within digitally stored spatial data. The topological relationships permit
complex spatial modelling and analysis to be performed. Topological relationships
between geometric entities traditionally include adjacency (what adjoins
what), containment (what encloses what), and proximity (how close something
is to something else).
