摘要
可视化是在数字化的背景中产生的 ,其作用是在人机交互的情况下发挥人脑的形象思维功能。地图本身就是可视化的产品 ,并在发展过程中形成了一系列的理论与方法。这些都自然地会成为地理空间数据可视化技术的基础。地图学也因可视化方法的提出而获得新的动力。GIS也因可视化的支持而为研究者提供了促使逻辑思维与形象思维相结合的认知工具。
Visualiztion emerges in the background of digital technics.The function of visualization is to give the reins to humans thinking in terms of images in a state of interaction with computer. The maps are visual products in the first place and form a series of theory and method in process of its development.All of this would be the base of visualization of geospatial data.The GIS supporting with visualization will become a combinative tool of both thinking in terms of images and logic for researchers.
