1 Geodata analysis Riccardo De Filippi

2 Analysis Purpose & Methods Queries and reasoning Measurements Transformation Data mining Descriptive summaries Optimization Vector analysis Raster analysis Combined analysis Hypothesis testing

3 Operations in vector What is? Attribute What is its relation to other entities? Spatial topology Where is it? Distance/location Feature analysis Select Create

4 What is it: Attribute operators Logical operations attributes of one or more entities individual entities Mathematical operations new attribute math calculation Statistical analysis descriptive stat stat software Numerical models complex sets of mathematical functions that represent physical process

5 Spatial operators Relational operators: - Testing spatial relationships between geometries - Result is a boolean value, no new geometries are created Topological operators: - Support for editing geographic features - Result is a new geometry based on a logical comparison between geometries

6 Vector analysis: Relational operators Relational operators: Equals Contains Within Crosses Overlaps Touches Disjoint

7 Vector analysis: Relational operators(3) Contains Within Zeiler (1999)

8 Vector analysis: Relational operators (4) Crosses Overlaps Zeiler (1999)

9 Vector analysis: Topological operators Topological operators: Buffer Clip Convex hull Cut Difference Intersect Symmetric Difference Union

10 Topological operators (1) Buffer Clip Zeiler (1999)

11 Topological operators (3) Difference Intersect Zeiler (1999)

12 Interaction

13 Functions vs Operators 1. Raster functions Zeiler (1999) 2. Raster operators

14 Every cell of the raster is processed Cell processing

15 Raster Map Analysis Zeiler (1999) Map query Boolean/logical operations: And, Or, XOr, Not, >, >=, =, <>, <, <=, Zeiler (1999) Map calculation Mathematical operations: +, -, /, *, Log, Exp, Sin, Cos, Sqrt,

16 Raster Functions Trigonometric sin, cos, tan,... Exponential a x, e x Logarithmic log, ln, lg, ld Relational >, <, =,,,, <>,... Statistical max, min, mean, total, SD,... Application Transformation, DTM derivatives, Hydrology,Proximity, Dispersion.

25 Application function 2 Viewsheds, shaded relief, irradiance DTM hillshade combin ed Zeiler (1999)

26 Application function 3 Dilation, spreading, dispersion - fire spreading - oil dilation and translocation - soil solute dispersion from point source Zeiler (1999)

27 Application function 4 Spatial transformation - translocation - scaling, distension, stretching - rotation - distortion Zeiler (1999)

28 Raster analysis: application 5 Surface topology, drainage network, sun - Slope, Aspect - Hydrology - Sun radiation. flow accumulation DTM watershed & subwatersheds Sources: Weisshaidinger; Hebel

29 Application function 6 Proximity - Euclidian distance - Travel time Zeiler (1999)

30 Application function 7 Least-cost path analysis Zeiler (1999)

31 Raster Operator Arithmetic [Inlayer1] + [Inlayer2] / 2 Boolean Where <> 0 in layer1 and layer2 Relational Inlayer < 3
