Part 4) Future Directions. Most GIS technology has deep roots in manual mapping and geo-query procedures involving discrete spatial objects— continuous mapped data promises a future that moves well beyond mapping. The current cycle of innovation is focused on hexagonal/dodecahedral grid representation and implementation of a latitude/longitude-based universal spatial database key which are poised to change how we conceptualize, visualize, process and analyze spatial data.

Elevation (Surface Gradient) Aerial Photo (Raster Image) Analysis Frame Map Stack of Grid Map Layers A Grid Map Layer consists of a matrix of numbers with a value indicating the characteristic or condition at each grid cell location– forming a geo-registered Map Stack. Lodgepole Pine (Polygon Feature) Roads (Line Feature) : Other Layers Modern digital maps are organized sets of numbers first (data) … Spatial Analysis and Statistics use “map-ematical” operations to analyze mapped data for a better understand of geographic patterns and relationships. …pictures later (graphics).

The Latitude/Longitude grid forms a continuous surface for geographic referencing where each grid cell represents a given portion of the earth’ surface Latitude/Longitude Grid (140mi grid cell size) Coordinate of first grid cell is 90 0 N 0 0 E Analysis Frame (grid “cells”) All spatial topology is inherent in the grid. The easiest way to conceptualize a grid map is as an Excel spreadsheet with each cell in the table corresponding to a Lat/Lon grid space (location) and each value in a cell representing the characteristic or condition (information) of a mapped variable occurring at that location. Conceptual Spreadsheet (73 x 144) #Rows= 73 #Columns= 144 …each grid cell is about 140mi x 140mi 18,735mi 2 …but maximum Lat/Lon decimal degree resolution is a four-inch square anywhere in the world …from Lat/Lon “ crosshairs to grid cells ” that contain map values indicating characteristics or conditions at each location Lat/Lon Grid-based Map Data (geo-registered matrix of map values) (Berry)

Database Table Geographic Space Grid Space “Where” RDBMS Organization Data Space Each column (field) represents a single map layer with the values in the rows indicating the characteristic or condition at each grid cell location (record) “What” … Spatially Keyed data in the cloud are downloaded and configured to the Analysis Frame defining the Map Stack Grid-based Map Data (Lat/Lon as the Universal Spatial dB Key) Lat/Lon as a Universal Spatial Key Once a set of mapped data is stamped with its Lat/Lon “Spatial Key,” it can be linked to any other database table with spatially tagged records without the explicit storage of a fully expanded grid layer— all of the spatial relationships are implicit in the relative Lat/Lon positioning. Spatially Keyed data in the cloud Lat/Lon serves as a Universal dB Key for joining data tables based on location Keystone Concept Each of the conceptual grid map spreadsheets (matrices) can be converted to interlaced RDBMS format with a long string of numbers forming the data field (map layer) and the records (values) identifying the information at each of the individual grid cell locations. 2D Matrix  1D Field Conceptual Organization Elevation Surface Spreadsheet 30m Elevation ( 99 columns x 99 rows) Wyoming’s Bighorn Mts. “moving Lat/Lon from crosshairs to grid cells” (Berry)

The Future Grid-based Map Analysis Spatial Statistics — 1) uncertainty and error propagation handing for all analytical processing; 2) localized expression of most statistical metrics will be employed; and 3) CART, Induction and Neural Networks techniques requiring large N will replace traditional multivariate data analysis Map Analysis and Modeling Spatial Analysis — 1) recoding of all operations to take advantage of increased precision/accuracy in the new geo- referencing and data structures; 2) incorporate dynamic influences on effective movement/connectivity (e.g., direction, accumulation, momentum); and 3) uncertainty and error propagation handing for all analytical processing. …emphasis on Data Accuracy (correct WHAT characterization) vs. Precision (proper WHERE placement) Data Structure Advances in Data Storage and Geo-referencing will lead to revision of existing analytical operations and spawn new ones that will radically change our paradigm of what maps are and how they are utilized– moving well beyond traditional mapping and geo-query.

Where are we headed? 2) Grid-based map analysis and modeling involving Spatial Analysis and Spatial Statistics are in large part simply spatial extensions of traditional mathematical and statistical concepts and procedures. 2) Grid-based map analysis and modeling involving Spatial Analysis and Spatial Statistics are in large part simply spatial extensions of traditional mathematical and statistical concepts and procedures. 1) Solutions to complex spatial problems need to engage “domain expertise” through GIS– outreach to other disciplines to establish spatial reasoning skills needed for effective solutions that integrate a multitude of disciplinary and general public perspectives.. 1) Solutions to complex spatial problems need to engage “domain expertise” through GIS– outreach to other disciplines to establish spatial reasoning skills needed for effective solutions that integrate a multitude of disciplinary and general public perspectives.. 3) The recognition by the GIS community that quantitative analysis of maps is a reality and the recognition by the STEM community that spatial relationships exist and are quantifiable should be the glue that binds the two perspectives– a common coherent and comprehensive SpatialSTEM approach. 3) The recognition by the GIS community that quantitative analysis of maps is a reality and the recognition by the STEM community that spatial relationships exist and are quantifiable should be the glue that binds the two perspectives– a common coherent and comprehensive SpatialSTEM approach.
