Databases, layers, views and themes

A database has many
layers

This is a storage concept

Visualization is based on
views and themes

A view is a set of spatial
objects from a layer

A theme is a way to display
these objects
Changing the legend of a theme

Theme...Change legend

Change the legend to
display the NEO_RATE


Shows both graphics and map
Brush between the two and the table
R – TerraLib integration
Strong coupling mechanism
R – TerraLib integration

Enables R to access a TerraLib database

Results in R are incorporated in a GIS database directly

Data is analysed in R using packages such as gstat or
geoR

Results are visualized in TerraView

Integration is performed by the aRT API
aRT: API R-TerraLib

aRT is an R package that provides the integration
between the software R and the GIS classes TerraLib.

Developed by UFPR, Brazil

R-TerraLib integration: example 1

Load the geoR and arT packages into R manually

geoR is a library for advanced geostatistics (also
developed by Paulo Ribeiro, UFPR)

Get the geoR and arT packages from the course
homepage

Expand the zip files and copy them to the directory
C:\Program Files\R\rw2011\library
