What is GIS ? • A computer system for - collecting, - storing, - manipulating, - analyzing, - displaying, and - querying geographically related information.
In general GIS cover 3 components n Computer system n Hardware n n Computer, plotter, printer, digitizer Software and appropriate procedures Spatially referenced or geographic data People to carry out various management and analysis tasks
Geographic Data n Geospatial data tells you where it is and attribute data tells you what it is. Metadata describes both geospatial and attribute data. In GIS, we call geographic data as GIS data or spatial data
1. Geospatial data
Traditional method n To represent the geographic data is paper-based maps n n Geology map Topographic map City street map (we still use it a lot). . .
Characteristics of spatial data n “mappable” characteristics: n n n Location (coordinate system, will be lectured later) Size is calculated by the amount (length, area, perimeter) of the data Shape is defined as shape (point, line, area) of the feature Discrete or continuous Spatial relationships
Discrete and continuous n Discrete data are distinct features that have definite boundaries and identities n n A district, houses, towns, agricultural fields, rivers, highways, … Continuous data has no define borders or distinctive values, instead, a transition from one value to another n Temperature, precipitation, elevation, . . .
GIS: a simplified view of the real world n Discrete features n n n Points Lines Areas Networks n A series of interconnecting lines n n n Continuous features n Road network River network Sewage network Surfaces n n Elevation surface Temperature surface
Problems caused by the simplified features may still exist, but let’s live on it n Dynamic nature (not static) n n Identification of discrete and continuous features n n n Forest grow River channel change City expand or decline Road to be a line or a area? Scale Some may not fit to any type of features: fuzzy boundaries n Transition area between woodland grassland Lets do not worry about these problems now!!! Just keep in mind
Topology needed n A collection of numeric data which clearly describes adjacency, containment (coincidence), and connectivity between map features and which can be stored and manipulated by a computer. n A set of rules on how objects relate to each other n Major difference in file formats n Higher level objects have special topology rules
Two basic data models to represent these features n Raster spatial data model n n n Define space as an array of equally sized cells arranged in rows and columns. Each cell contains an attribute value and location coordinates Individual cells as building blocks for creating images of point, line, area, network and surface Continuous raster n n Discrete raster n n Numeric values range smoothly from one location to another, for example, DEM, temperature, remote sensing images, etc. Relative few possible values to repeat themselves in adjacent cells, for example, land use, soil types, etc. Vector spatial data model n Use x-, y- coordinates to represent point, line, area, network, surface n n Point as a single coordinate pair, line and polygon as ordered lists of vertices, while attributes are associated with each features Usually are discrete features

Geodatabase componentsvector data and table n n Primary (basic) components - feature classes, - feature datasets, - nonspatial tables. complex components building on the basic components: - topology, - relationship classes, - geometric networks
Geodatabase components. Raster data n n n Raster data referenced only in personal geodatabase Raster data physically stored in multiuser geodatabse Raster datasets and raster catalogs n n A raster dataset is created from one or more individual rasters. When creating a raster dataset from multiple rasters, the data is mosaicked, or aggregated, into a single, seamless dataset in which areas of overlap have been removed. The input rasters must be contiguous (adjacent) and have the same properties, including the same coordinate system, cell size, and data format. For each raster dataset (. img, grid, JPEG, Mr. SID, TIFF), Arc. GIS creates an ERDAS IMAGINE file (. img). A raster catalog is defined as a table in the geodatabase which you can view like any other table in Arc. Catalog. Each raster in the catalog is represented by a row in the table. It contains a collection of rasters that can be noncontiguous, stored in different formats, and have other different properties. In order to view all the rasters in the catalog, they must have the same coordinate system and a common geographic extent
2. Attribute data n Attribute data is about “what” of a spatial data and is a list or table of data arranged as rows and columns n Rows are records (map features) n n n Each row represents a map feature, which has a unique label ID or object ID Columns are fields (characteristics) Intersection of a column and a row shows the values of attributes, such as color, ownership, magnitude, classification, …
examples
Relational database n A relational database is a collection of tables, also called relations, which can be connected to each other by keys. n n A primary key represents one or more attributes whose values can uniquely identify a record in a table. Its counterpart in another table for the purpose of linkage is called a foreign key Advantages n n Each table in the database can be prepared, maintained, and edited separately from other tables Efficient data management and processing, since linking tables query and/or analysis is often temporary
Join and relate tables n n Once tables are separated as relational tables, then two operations can be used to link those tables during query and analysis n Join, brings together two tables based on a common key. n Relate, connects two tables (based on keys) but keeps the tables separate. Keys do not have to have the same name but must be of the same data type Join relate
The joined table will only preserved within the map document-the tables remain separate on disk-and can be removed at any time
Related tables The related table will only preserved within the map document-the tables remain separate on disk-and can be removed at any time
3. metadata n n n Meta is defined as a change or transformation. Data is described as the factual information used as a basis for reasoning. Put these two definitions together and metadata would literally mean "factual information used as a basis for reasoning which describes a change or transformation. " In GIS, Metadata is data about the data. It consists of information that describes spatial data and is used to provide documentation for data products. Metadata is the who, what, when, where, why, and how about every facet of the spatial data. According to the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC), metadata is data about the content, quality, condition, and other characteristics of data.
Why use and create metadata n n n To help organize and maintain an organization's spatial data - Employees may come and go but metadata can catalogue the changes and updates made to each spatial data set and how each employee implemented them To provide information to other organizations and clearinghouses to facilitate data sharing and transfer - It makes sense to share existing data sets rather than producing new ones if they are already available To document the history of a spatial data set - Metadata documents what changes have been made to each data set, such as changes in geographic projection, adding or deleting attributes, editing line intersections, or changing file formats. All of these could have an effect on data quality.
Metadata Should Include Data about n n n n Date of data collected. Date of coverage generated. Bounding coordinates. Processing steps. n Software used n RMSE, etc. From where original data came. Who did processing. Projection coordinate System Datum Units Spatial scale Attribute definitions Who to contact for more information See an example of non-standard metadata (see)
Federal Geographic Data Committee’s (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM) n n The FGDC is developing the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI) in cooperation with organizations from State, local and tribal governments, the academic community, and the private sector. The NSDI encompasses policies, standards, and procedures for organizations to cooperatively produce and share geographic data. The objectives of the CSDGM are to provide a common set of terminology and definitions for the documentation of digital geospatial data.

4. Geodatabase n n Before geodatabase, in one GIS project, many GIS files (spatial data and nonspatial data) are stored separated. So for a large GIS project, the GIS files could be hundreds. Within a geodatabase, all GIS files (spatial data and nonspatial data) in a project can be stored in one geodatabase, using the relational database management system (RDMS)
Types of geodatabases n n personal enterprise
Personal Geodatabase n The personal geodatabase is given a name of filename. mdb that is browsable and editable by the Arc. GIS, and it can also be opened with Microsoft Access. It can be read by multiple people at the same time, but edited by only one person at a time. maximum size is 2 GB.
Multiuser Geodatabase n n Multiuser (Arc. SDE or enterprise) geodatabase are stored in IBM DB 2, Informix, Oracle, or Microsoft SQL Server. It can be edited through Arc. SDE by many users at the same time, is suitable for large workgroups and enterprise GIS implementations. no limit of size. support raster data.
3 -tier Arc. SDE client/server architecture with both the Arc. SDE and Oracle RDBMS running on the same server, which minimizes network traffic and client load while increasing the server load compared to 2 -tier system, in which the clients directly connect to the RDBMS

5. Geometric transformation projection and coordinate system is to project the 3 D earth to 2 D plane, so the 3 D earth can be represented in different GIS data models (2 D digital format) in a GIS system. n. Geometric transformation is the process of using a set of control points and transformation equations to register a (2 D) digitized map, a satellite image, or an air photograph onto a (2 D) projected coordinate system. n. In GIS, geometric transformation includes map-to-map transformation, image-to-image transformation. n. The root mean square (RMS) error is a quantitative measure of location accuracy that can determine the quality of a geometric transformation. n. Image to map (or image) needs an additional step resampling to fill the cell values from the original image.
6. Data accuracy and quality n Raster data quality n n n Geolocation accuracy Estimation accuracy Vector data quality n n Location errors Topographical errors Location and value
7. Vector data analysis n. Vector data analysis uses the spatial features of point, line, and polygon as inputs. n. The accuracy of analysis results depends on the accuracy of spatial features in terms of location and shape. n. Topology can also be a factor for some vector data analyses such as buffering and overlay. Intersect Union Symmetrical difference Identity n. Pattern Analysis AND OR XOR AND OR Point pattern: nearest neighbor, Ripley’s K-function Moran’s I G-Statistic
8. Raster data analysis n. Raster data analysis is based on cells and rasters. n. Raster data analysis can be performed at the level of individual cells, or groups of cells, or cells within an entire raster. n. Some raster data operations use a single raster, while others use two or more rasters. n. Raster data analysis is also related to the type of cell value (numeric or categorical values) in the input raster(s).
