Why is deep learning particularly useful in satellite imagery analysis? -
ANSWER It can detect and classify objects in high-resolution images with
minimal manual intervention.
Which of the following best describes a union overlay operation? - ANSWER
It creates a new layer by combining all areas of multiple input layers, regardless
of overlap.
What is the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP)? - ANSWER The
problem caused by changes in spatial patterns due to different aggregation units
When applying buffer analysis to line features, which factor is most important
for accurately representing the buffer area? - ANSWER The coordinate system
used for the map
What distinguishes a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) from a Digital Surface
Model (DSM)? - ANSWER A DTM excludes above-ground features,
representing only the bare-earth surface.
In GIS, what is the main purpose of a buffer? - ANSWER To create a new
polygon at a constant distance from a feature.
What is a primary purpose of overlay analysis in GIS? - ANSWER To
combine multiple spatial datasets to identify relationships between them
What does Moran's I measure in spatial analysis? - ANSWER Spatial
autocorrelation
What is a practical reason for using crowdsourcing in a StoryMap? - ANSWER
To gather community reactions for decision-making processes
, How can GIS analysts mitigate the impact of MAUP in spatial studies? -
ANSWER Selecting aggregation schemes that align with the research question
and testing multiple scales
What is a potential limitation when using machine learning models for spatial
data? - ANSWER The models struggle to account for spatial relationships and
dependencies.
What is the primary purpose of a DSM in urban planning? - ANSWER To
provide detailed data on building heights and vegetation
In which of the following scenarios would a buffer NOT typically be used in
GIS? - ANSWER Identifying the area of overlap between two datasets
In overlay analysis, why might an intersection operation be preferred over a
union? - ANSWER It simplifies data by retaining only the areas common to all
input layers, reducing irrelevant information.
What are the two components of the MAUP? - ANSWER Scale effect and
zoning effect
What is the main difference between the clip and intersect tools in GIS? -
ANSWER Intersect preserves attributes from all input datasets; clip does not.
When choosing a coordinate system for mapping, what factors should you
consider? - ANSWER The ability to avoid distortions in area and distance, The
type of analysis to be performed on the map, Data accuracy requirements for the
mapped area
Which of the following considerations is crucial when choosing symbols for a
map aimed at a global audience? - ANSWER Ensuring that symbols are
culturally neutral and easily understood
What is the primary purpose of isarithmic maps? - ANSWER Mapping
continuous data like elevation
What industry is NOT commonly thought of as a major user of interactive
maps? - ANSWER Manufacturing

minimal manual intervention.
