  2. Spatial join - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_join

    Examples of topological spatial relations. Fundamental to the spatial join operation is the formulation of a spatial relationship between two geometric primitives as a logical predicate; that is, a criterion that can be evaluated as true or false. [3]

  3. Spatial analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_analysis

    Two fundamentally spatial simulation methods are cellular automata and agent-based modeling. Cellular automata modeling imposes a fixed spatial framework such as grid cells and specifies rules that dictate the state of a cell based on the states of its neighboring cells. As time progresses, spatial patterns emerge as cells change states based ...

  4. Geographic information system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_Information_System

    The core of any GIS is a database that contains representations of geographic phenomena, modeling their geometry (location and shape) and their properties or attributes. A GIS database may be stored in a variety of forms, such as a collection of separate data files or a single spatially-enabled relational database. Collecting and managing these ...

  8. Ordnance Survey National Grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordnance_Survey_National_Grid

    The Ordnance Survey National Grid reference system (OSGB), also known as British National Grid (BNG), [1] [2] is a system of geographic grid references, distinct from latitude and longitude, whereby any location in Great Britain can be described in terms of its distance from the origin (0, 0), which lies to the west of the Isles of Scilly.

  9. Local field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_field

    For a non-negative integer n, an n-dimensional local field is a complete discrete valuation field whose residue field is an (n − 1)-dimensional local field. [5] Depending on the definition of local field, a zero-dimensional local field is then either a finite field (with the definition used in this article), or a perfect field of positive ...
