Distinguish between Spatial data and Non-Spatial data

Subject	Spatial data	Non-Spatial data
i. Definition	Spatial data is a geographical data, the element of this spatial data are related to specific geographical coordinate & specific geographical attributes.	Non-spatial data are unrelated to specific geographical location, this type of data generally related to a particular subject with which geographical location has no relation.
ii.Geographical location	Related to graphical location.	Unrelated to geographical location.
iii.Describe	Describes the absolute and relative location of a geographical feature.	Describes the characteristics of a geographical feature.
iv.Forms of description	This kind of data represents by diagrams, point, line, square, pixel.	This kind of data represents by number.
v.Example	Location of river, Ground water extraction point.	Depth, Height, Scale figure, Agricultural production.
vi.Indicates	Geographical location.	Particular location.
vii.Dependency	It not depends on non-spatial data.	It depends on spatial data.
viii.Publish	Such data publish without non-spatial data.	Such data cannot publish without spatial data.
ix.Co-ordinates system	Co-ordinates system on the map.	No need of Co-ordinates system for representing non-spatial data.
x.Element	The element of this spatial data is related to specific geographical coordinate & specific geographical attributes.	The element of this spatial data is related to particular location with which geographical location has no relation.

Behaviouralism in geography

Behaviouralism Behaviouralism is an approach in human geography that came to prominence in the human geography of the 1960s and 1970s. It goes out of the idea that people are the determining factor in the explanation of space. Behaviouralism tries to give an explanation of the spatiallity of human activities. And thereby they use a complex universally applicable model. Definition of Behaviouralism: The particular aspect with which geographical content is analyzed using mathematical statistics & human sensitivity, is called behavioralism. Concept of Behaviouralism: The Behaviouralism revolution is a theoretical concept. Its theories are not based on assumptions, but are actually explored through ascending methods based on the experience of human behavior. An analysis of the significance of geographical issues in behavioral perspectives within a system, so therefore is no definite boundary to behavioral geography. The main purpose of behaviouralism geography is to in...

Concentric zone theory

Theories of City Structure-Concentric Zone Theory Introduction: The Concentric or Zonal Theory of urban landuse was first proposed in 1923 by E.W. Burgess. He was a sociologist. The idea behind the concentric model is that the development of a city takes place outwards from its central area in a series of concentric circles to form zones. Assumption: i. Cultural & social heterogeneity of the population. ii. Commercial-industrial base to the economy of the city. iii. Private ownership of property & economic competition for space. iv. Expanding area & population of the city. v. ...

T-S Diagram

Definition: The diagram by which the salinity & temperature of the sea water are expressed is called T-S diagram. Prepared: T-S Diagram was prepared by Helland Harsenin (1916) with the objective to determine the density of water at various depth. Characteristics: The Temperature ‘T’ & Salinity ‘S’ observed at the particular depth are represented by a single point in this diagram. The plotted points of T & S generally fall on a well defined curve, in which temperature & salinity decrease together. The density of water tends to increase with depth. In T-S Diagram, it may be observed that many combinations of temperature & salinity can yield the same density. In T-S Diagram, it may be observed that the density of water tends to increase with depth. Diagrammatic Example: Significance: The T-S Diagram is a tool of great utility in Oceanography. The T-S Diagram is the way to visualize layering of water. The T-S Diagram helps in t...
