  1. GUS: 0262Fundamentals of GIS Lecture Presentation 6: Raster Data Model Jeremy Mennis Department of Geography and Urban Studies Temple University

  2. Raster Data Model • A raster representation is composed a series of layers, each with a theme • Typically used to represent ‘field-like’ geographic phenomena

  3. Regular Tessellations Squares Triangles Hexagons

  4. Irregular Tessellations

  5. Raster Grid • but most common raster is composed of squares, called grid cells • grid cells are analogous to pixels in remote sensing images and computer graphics

  10. Raster Data: ArcGIS

  11. Raster Data: ArcGIS

  12. Raster in ArcGIS – Floating Point

  13. Raster in ArcGIS - Integer

  14. Converting Polygons from Vector to Raster

  15. Data Compression Common Methods: • run length encoding • value point encoding • chain codes • block codes • quadtrees

  19. Quadtree a partitioning of heterogeneous space into quarter sections

  20. Quadtrees • node is a quadrant that is heterogeneous • leaf is a quadrant that is homogeneous • quadrants are assigned an ID number according to their position and level
