Thehierarchicalclassificationtheoryisoneofthebasictheoriesforpeopletoperceivetherealworld."Layer"isanimportantbasicconceptinGIS,and"Layer"isoneofthemostbasicandimportantmethodsofGISdataorganization,asshownintheupperdiagraminFigure1.Hierarchyinthevectormodelisaccompaniedbyclassification(mainlyreferstotheclassificationofabstractgeometricelements,suchaspoint,line,surface,andbody,etc.).Therastermodelismainlyhierarchical,andeachlayerofdataafterlayeringhasCorrespondingattributesandspaceandotherinformation,thelogicalorganizationmodelisshowninthefigurebelow.

(2)LayersetTämä on kerrosjoukko, joka koostuu useista tilakerroksista, jotka voivat täyttää tietyt sovellusvaatimukset, mukaan lukien kerrosviittaukset (tasotunniste, kerroksen taulukon nimi), tasotilaindeksi (koko, tarra, taulukon nimi), kerroksen näyttö, kerroskoordinaattialue (maksimi- ja vähimmäistiedot) ja vähimmäismäärä.
(3)LayerTämä on kokoelma saman tyypin useita tilaobjekteja, joilla on tietyt samat tai samankaltaiset ominaisuudet, mukaan lukien tilaobjektin tunniste (tunniste, nimi) ja kuvaus (nimi, ominaisuuden attribuutti, tyyppi), tilaobjektien geometrinen esitys (binary OBge).

Ominaisuuksiin perustuva tietoorganisaatio
Hierarkiseen tietoorganisaatioon perustuvassa maantieteellisten ilmiöiden kuvauksessa on seuraavat puutteet:
(1)Real-worldspatialgeometrytargetsAbstractionignorestheessentialcharacteristicsofgeographicphenomenaandtheirinternalconnections,andartificiallydividestherealworld,whichresultsinthesimplificationofGISinformationandreducesthecapacityofGISinformation.
(2)PayattentiontothedescriptionofspatiallocationsThevectororrasterdataorganizationmodelofthecompanylosestherichanalysiscapabilitiesprovidedbythestructuredentitiesbasedontheclassificationattributesandinterrelationships;
(3)TheoverlapmethodTherealworldisdividedintoaseriesoflayerswithstrictboundaries,buttheseboundariescannotfullyreflecttheobjectivereality,whichcausesmanyhumanerrors;inaddition,thismethodcannotprovidethespatialanalysiscapabilitiesofmanybasicobjects.

Yllä olevia periaatteita noudattaen suurikokoinen GIS-tietoorganisaatio, joka täyttää "digitaalisen maan" vaatimukset, on seuraava:
(1)Vektoritiedot: tallennetaan erikseen karttakehyksen ja mittakaavan mukaan.
(2)Rasterdata:regulargriddatawithacertaingridspacing(suchasDEM,imagedata,etc.),anditsdataorganizationisdifferentfromvectordata.Duetotheinfluenceofmapprojection,whenthedataisstoredingeographiccoordinates(latitudeandlongitude),thenumberofgridscontainedineachstandardframingmapisthesame,andthedataformsastandardrectangle;andwhenthedataisstoredinrectangularcoordinates(x,y)Whenstoring,thequantitycontainedineachstandardframingmapformsatrapezoid(approximately).Inordertosolvetheproblemofdataconnection,generallythecircumscribedrectangleofthefigureprofileisusedastheboundarytoformastandardrectangle,andthedataoutsidethefigureprofileFillitwithadjacentmapframedata,asshowninFigure3.

②Asiakaavasta ja ruudukkovälistä riippumatta jokaisen tietotiedoston (tietolohkon) koko on yhtenäinen.
③Määritä mittakaavan ja käyttöresoluutio(ruudukkoväli)käsite tietoskaalana.
