Study Notes
Geospatial Analysis Types
- Overlay Analysis: Combines different geospatial datasets to derive new insights or information from multiple sources.
- Geocoding: The process of assigning geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) to a specific location, converting addresses into geographical data.
Clustering Analysis
- Spatial Clustering: Groups geospatial data points into clusters based on their proximity, helping to identify patterns or hotspots within the data.
Geospatial Standards
- Web Feature Service (WFS): A standard that defines the format for encoding and transporting geographic information over the web, enabling access to geospatial features.
- Web Map Service (WMS): Allows clients to request and retrieve maps of geospatial data from a server over the internet, providing visual map representations.
- Well-Known Text (WKT): A standard that defines a method for representing coordinate reference systems in a text format, facilitating communication and data sharing regarding spatial references.
