Midterm Study Questions
(hopefully you are participating in a study group)
Midterm Exam …you will download and take the 2-hour exam online (honor system) sometime between
8:00 am Friday February 10 and must be completed by 5:00 pm Wednesday February 15
Blue Light Special …20 minutes of Instructor “Help” on midterm study question “toughies “
Exercise #6 (mini-project) — you will form your own teams (1 to 4 members) and tackle one of the
eight projects; we will discuss the project “opportunities” in great detail later in class
…assigned tonight Thursday, February 11 and final report due Monday, February 20 by 5:00pm
Submit via two emails, one with report Body attached and the other with Appendix attached
No Exercise Week 7 —
a moment for “a dance of celebration”
Exercises #8 and #9 — you can tailor to your interests by choosing to not complete either or both of these
standard exercises; in lieu of an exercise, however, you must submit a short paper (4-8 pages) on a GIS modeling
topic of your own choosing. I need to know your choices by next Wednesday as I will form new teams for exercises
#8 and #9.

Modeling Wildfire Risk
Increased population growth into the
wildland/urban interface raises the
threat of disaster…
…a practical method is
needed to identify areas
most likely to be impacted
by wildfire so effective
pre-treatment,
suppression and recovery
plans can be developed

Is Technology Ahead of Science?
“Maps as Data”
• Is the "scientific method" relevant in the
data-rich age of knowledge engineering?
• Is the "random thing" pertinent in deriving
mapped data?
• Are geographic distributions a natural extension
of numerical distributions?
• Can spatial dependencies be modeled?
• How can commercial “on-site studies"
augment traditional research?

GIS and Map-ematical Perspectives (SA)
Spatial Statistics Operations – Numerical Context
GIS Perspective:
Map Analysis Toolbox
Surface Modeling (Density Analysis, Spatial Interpolation, Map Generalization)
Spatial Data Mining (Descriptive, Predictive, Prescriptive)
Map-ematical Perspective:
Grid Map Layers
Basic Descriptive Statistics (Min, Max, Median, Mean, StDev, etc.)
Basic Classification (Reclassify, Binary/Ranking/Rating Suitability)
Unique Map Descriptive Statistics (Roving Window Summaries)
Map Comparison (Joint Coincidence, Statistical Tests)
Surface Modeling (Density Analysis, Spatial Interpolation)
Advanced Classification (Map Similarity, Maximum Likelihood, Clustering)
Predictive Statistics (Map Correlation/Regression, Data Mining Engines)

Numeric Distribution
…click anywhere on the histogram
and all map locations in that range
are highlighted
…click anywhere on the map
surface and the corresponding
histogram pillar is highlighted
Surface Modeling techniques
are used to derive a continuous
map surface from discrete point
data– fits a Surface to the data.
In Data Space, a standard
normal curve can be fitted to the
histogram of the map surface
data to identify the “typical value”
(Average)– fits a Curve.
In Geographic Space, this
typical value forms a horizontal
plane implying the average is
everywhere.
Berry
Spatial Interpolation (Spatial Distribution)
The “iterative smoothing” process is similar to slapping a big chunk of
modeler’s clay over the “data spikes,” then taking a knife and cutting away
the excess to leave a continuous surface that encapsulates the peaks and
valleys implied in the original field samples …mapping the Variance
…repeated
smoothing
slowly “erodes”
the data surface
to a flat plane
= AVERAGE

Visualizing Spatial Relationships
Phosphorous (P)
Geographic Distribution
What spatial relationships
do you SEE?
…do relatively high levels
of P often occur with high
levels of K and N?
…how often?
…where?
“Maps are numbers first, pictures later”
Multivariate Analysis— each map layer is a
continuous map variable with all of the math/stat
“rights, privileges and responsibilities” therewith …simply “spatially organized “ sets of numbers (matrix)
(Berry)
Calculating Data Distance
…an n-dimensional plot depicts the multivariate distribution—
the distance between points determines the relative similarity in data patterns
Actual data in JMP
Pythagorean
Theorem
2D Data Space:
Dist = SQRT (a2 + b2)
3D Data Space:
Dist = SQRT (a2 + b2 + c2)
…expandable to N-space
…this response
pattern (high, high,
medium) is the least
similar point as it
has the largest data
distance from the
comparison point
(low, low, medium)
(See Beyond Mapping III, “Topic 16”, Characterizing Spatial Patterns and Relationships, www.innovativegis.com/basis)
(Berry)
Clustering Maps
…groups of “floating balls” in data space identify locations in the field
with similar data patterns– data zones
Spatial Data Mining
Map surfaces are clustered to identify
data pattern groups
Relatively low
responses in P, K and N
Relatively high responses in P, K and N
Geographic Space
Data Space
Clustered Data
Zones
…other techniques, such as Level Slicing, Similarity and Map Regression,
can be used to discover relationships among map layers
…map-ematics/statistics
(Berry)
The Precision Ag Process (Fertility example)
As a combine moves through a field it 1) uses GPS to check its location then
2) checks the yield at that location to 3) create a continuous map of the
yield variation every few feet. This map is
Steps 1) – 3)
4) combined with soil, terrain and other maps to
derive 5) a “Prescription Map” that is used to
6) adjust fertilization levels every few feet
in the field (variable rate application).
