The concept of a spatial weight is used in spatial analysis to describe neighbor relations between regions on a map. [1] If location i {\displaystyle i} is a neighbor of location j {\displaystyle j} then w i j ≠ 0 {\displaystyle w_{ij}\neq 0} otherwise w i j = 0 {\displaystyle w_{ij}=0} .
The Odyssey project's aim was to produce a vector GIS that provided spatial analysis of many different forms within a single system. As of 1980, in addition to early Odyssey modules, the Laboratory sold the following programs for display and analysis of spatial data [11] ASPEX - 3d data perspectives; CALFORM - shaded vector maps;
