Spatial Relationship Modeling
In addition to analyzing spatial patterns, GIS analysis can be used to explore or quantify relationships between features. Spatial relationship modeling employs regression analysis to establish spatial relationships, allowing you to predict unknown values and better understand key factors influencing the variables being modeled.
This approach addresses questions such as: Why does a particular phenomenon persist? What factors contribute to this situation? How can we model a phenomenon to predict its values at other locations or time periods?
