  2. (Nanotechnology)Geotechnology(Biotechnology) Mapping involves precise placement of physical features and inventories (Discrete/Graphic) Modeling involvesanalysis of spatial relationships and patterns (Continuous/Numerical) Descriptive Mapping Prescriptive Modeling …an enabling technology used in spatial reasoning, dialog and decision-making— Geotechnologyis one of the three "mega technologies" for the 21st century and promises to forever change how we conceptualize, utilize and visualize spatial relationships in scientific research and commercial applications (U.S. Department of Labor) Geographic Information Systems (map and analyze) Global Positioning System (location and navigation) Remote Sensing (measure and classify) GPS/GIS/RS The Spatial Triad is WhereWhat WhySo WhatWhat if… Map Analysis …provides “tools” for investigating spatial patterns and relationships (Berry)

  6. Basic Grid Data Structure (Analysis Frame) A Grid Mapconsists of a matrix of numbers with a value indicating the characteristic /condition at each grid cell location Map Stack …forming a geo-registered set of “map layers” organized as a Map Stack Points, Lines , Areas Surfaces Points, Lines , Areas Grid Map Layer Mesh Fill “…preconditions geographic space for analysis” (Implicit Topology) Analysis Frame The Analysis Frame provides consistent “parceling” needed for map analysis and extends discrete point, line and areal features to continuous map surfaces Col 3, Row 22 Data listing for a Map Stack Drill-down Layer Mesh (Berry)

  7. Desktop Mapping vs.Map Analysis Desktop Mapping Data Space Field Data Map Analysis Geographic Space Standard Normal Curve Average = 22.0 StDev = 18.7 22.0 “Maps are numbers first, pictures later” Desktop Mappinggraphically links generalized statistics to discrete spatial objects (Points, Lines, Polygons) —non-spatial analysis X, Y, Value Point Sampled Data (Numeric Distribution) (Geographic Distribution) 40.7 …not a problem Discrete Spatial Object Continuous Spatial Distribution High Pocket Spatially Generalized Spatially Detailed Discovery of sub-area… Adjacent Parcels Map Analysismap-ematically relates patterns within and among continuous spatial distributions (Map Surfaces) —spatial analysis and statistics (Berry)

  8. Recall that in the beginning we had… Computer Mappingautomates the cartographic process (70s) Spatial Database Managementlinks computer mapping with database capabilities (80s) Mapping and Geo-query Map Analysisrepresentation of relationships within and among mapped data (90s) • Spatial Analysis (Contextual) • Spatial Statistics (Numerical) Map-ematics But the nature of the digital map is taking us beyond mapping… …new analytic tools involving entirely new spatial reasoning skills (Berry)

  14. Phosphorous (P) Visualizing Spatial Relationships (Spatial Distributions) Geographic Distribution What spatial relationships do you SEE? …do relatively high levels of P often occur with high levels of K and N? …how often? …where? “Maps are numbers first, pictures later” Multivariate Analysis— each map layer is a continuous variable with all of the math/stat “rights, privileges and responsibilities” therewith …simply “spatially organized “ sets of numbers (matrices) (Berry)

  15. Clustering Maps for Data Zones Groups of “floating balls” in data space identify locations in the field with similar data patterns– data zones or Clusters …a Map Stack is a spatially organized set of numbers …data distances are minimized within a group (intra-cluster distance) and maximized between groups (inter-cluster distance) using an optimization procedure (See Beyond Mapping III, “Topic 7”, Linking Data Space and Geographic Space, www.innovativegis.com/basis) (See Beyond Mapping III, “Topic 16”, Characterizing Spatial Patterns and Relationships, www.innovativegis.com/basis) (Berry)

The Precision Ag Process (Fertility example) Steps 1) – 3) Cyber-Farmer, Circa 1992 On-the-Fly Yield Map Map Analysis Step 4) Farm dB Prescription Map Variable Rate Application Step 5) Step 6) As a combine moves through a field it 1) uses GPS to check its location then 2)checks the yield at that location to 3) create a continuous map of the yield variation every few feet. This map is 4) combined with soil, terrain and other maps to derive that is used to 6) adjust fertilization levels every few feet in the field (Variable Rate Application; Site-specific Management) 5) a “Prescription Map” (See Beyond Mapping III, “Topic 16”, Characterizing Spatial Patterns and Relationships, www.innovativegis.com/basis) (Berry)

  19. 3-D Visualization Approaches (Mega-Trend #4) Image Draping-- is an established technique in GIS. Draping a topographic or thematic map onto a 3-D terrain surface is effective but relies on abstract colors, shading and symbols. “Map Abstraction” SportsTracker (MapTrek, 1998) (Berry)

  27. Dominant Driving Forces (three game changers) • Alternative Geographic Referencing (3D GIS) — our current “rectangular-based” coordinate system will be replaced by a 3-dimensional coordinate system of columns (X), rows (Y), and verticals (Z) defining an imaginary matrix of grid elements …but this is going to take a bit more explanation, after we consider the other two driving forces later • Universal Spatial Key — use of the new referencing system to automatically join all databases by serving as a “spatially-enabled” Universal Key(Implicit Spatial Topology) …sort of like a three-dimensional UTM grid cell (1 m2) • Boutique to Big Box— a continued movement of GIS from a “boutique discipline” to increased mainstream use and subsequent redefinition of What GIS Is and Industry Leaders CAD, dBase and Visualization Industries GIS Industry Tomorrow Today …etc. …etc. (Berry)

  28. Geographic Referencing (Traditional 2D GIS) • Vector • Discrete Spatial Objects (vector) — • Point (X,Y) as fundamental unit • Points, Lines , Areas • Raster • Continuous Surfaces (grid)— • Cell (Col,Row) as fundamental unit • Points, Lines , Areas • Surfaces … intersection with a mathematically inferred spheroid/ellipsoid/geoid/datum establishes the Height (Z) from the center of the earth to any point on the earth’s surface` …flatten a 3D referencing system to a 2D projection Cartesian Coordinate System(X, Y, and Z)— both the traditional 2-D map and virtual reality’s 3-D visualization view the earth as a surface— …flattened to a pancake or curved and wrinkled a bit to reflect the surficial topography of an area (Berry)
