Geospatial visualization is when you create visualizations (such as maps and 3D models) using geospatial data. Scientists typically combine data from several sources to create a complete picture of a location. For example, they combine soil quality, water quality, and temperature data to find agricultural land with the most significant yield potential.
Geospatial visualization develops a high-level understanding of specific themes, patterns, and trends on the Earth’s surface. This type of visualization brings insight into the environment, revealing its impact on people and natural life. Geospatial visualization typically involves using geospatial technology to create interactive 3D maps and graphics.
