    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.
