Spatial pattern refers to the arrangement of features in space, including their location, density, and orientation.

An agglomerated distribution is a clustered spatial pattern where features are concentrated in a specific area.

Spatial distance refers to the measure of the separation between two features in space.

A scattered distribution is a dispersed spatial pattern where features are spread out over a large area.

Spatial orientation refers to the direction or alignment of features in space.

A regular distribution is a uniform spatial pattern where features are evenly spaced apart.

Spatial relationship refers to the connection or interaction between two features in space.

Positive spatial autocorrelation occurs when features with similar values are clustered together.

Spatial analysis involves the use of statistical and computational techniques to identify and analyze spatial patterns and relationships.

Negative spatial autocorrelation occurs when features with dissimilar values are dispersed.

Epidemiology is the study of the spatial distribution and determinants of diseases.

A random spatial pattern is one where features are distributed evenly across an area.

Economic geography is the study of the spatial distribution of economic activities and the factors that influence them.

The gravity model is a spatial interaction model that predicts the volume of interaction between two locations based on their size and distance.

Political geography is the study of the spatial distribution of political phenomena, such as states, borders, and elections.
