Tougher GIS Operations: Finding Spatial Relationships in Very Large, Spatio-Temporal, Multi-Dimensional Data Sets

Some Tougher Questions…

1. Are hazardous facilities clustered in certain areas? If so, what are the socioeconomic characteristics associated with these clusters?

2. What is the influence of degree of urbanization, proximity to transportation, and industrial land use on the relationship between locations of hazardous facilities and the racial and other socioeconomic characteristics of the communities that host these facilities?

Exploratory Spatial Data Analysis (ESDA)

The sophisticated quantitative analysis of spatial and spatio-temporal data, typically involving interactive and dynamic interfaces.

Feature Extraction

GeneralizationDr.Hans,SMU

• 500 weather probes– Monthly mean temp and precipitation

• Weather pattern of season 1990

• 18,000 tuples– Attribute Induction

• Non-spatial(merging of tuples based on non-spatial concept hierarchies)

• Spatial(merging of spatial objects based on the concept hierarchies-spatial region merging and/or spatial approximation)

Spatial Associative Rules

• Finding large towns and nearby objects like mines, country boundary, water(sea, lake, or river) and major highways.– Generalisation of the above spatial objects

Spatial Clustering

• A request to all expensive houses in an area.

• Finding down the relationships of the clusters with other spatial objects like roads, different land-use area

Clustering<house type,price,size>

Distribution

Spatial Data Mining: A Database ApproachMartin Ester, Hans-Peter Kriegel, Jorg Sander

• Step I: Discover centers based on some non-spatial attribute[clustering-descriptive mining]

• Step II: determine the (theoretical) trend of some non-spatial attribute.

• Step III: discover the deviation of the theoretical trends

• Step IV: explain the deviation by the spatial object, e.g. may be presence of some infrastructure.

Spatial Classification

• Non-spatial attribute e.g. no. of salespersons in a store

• Spatially related attribute with non-spatial values, like population living within 1km from store

• Spatial predicates, like – Distance_less_than_10km(X,a)

• Spatial function, like driving_distance(X,beach)
