Operations in vector What is? Attribute What is its relation to other entities? Spatial topology Where is it? Distance/location Feature analysis Select Create
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
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
Vector analysis: Relational operators Relational operators: Equals Contains Within Crosses Overlaps Touches Disjoint
Vector analysis: Relational operators(3) Contains Within Zeiler (1999)
Vector analysis: Relational operators (4) Crosses Overlaps Zeiler (1999)
Vector analysis: Topological operators Topological operators: Buffer Clip Convex hull Cut Difference Intersect Symmetric Difference Union
Topological operators (1) Buffer Clip Zeiler (1999)
Topological operators (3) Difference Intersect Zeiler (1999)

Functions vs Operators 1. Raster functions Zeiler (1999) 2. Raster operators
Every cell of the raster is processed Cell processing
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,
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.
