Spatial information refers to data or information that describes attributes related to locations and spaces. It includes details about the position, shape, size, and relationships between objects or features on the Earth's surface or within a specific area. Essentially, it is knowledge about the physical or geographic aspects of our surroundings.

This is because this specific region of the brain specializes in acquiring and using complex
spatial information in order to navigate efficiently.
Despite these limitations, drones provide a useful new source of
detailed spatial information to understand the interactions between the environment and infectious diseases.
Their work shows
how spatial information is incorporated into memories and why remembering an experience can quickly bring to mind other events that happened in the same place.
This part of the body can be a very difficult region examine with current imaging methods, which also do not provide
optimal spatial information important if a surgical procedure is needed.
«The fact that these eardrum movements are encoding
spatial information about eye movements means that they may be useful for helping our brains merge visual and auditory space,» said David Murphy, a doctoral student in Groh's lab and co-first author on the paper.
Using a video game in which people navigate through a virtual town delivering objects to specific locations, a team of neuroscientists from the University of Pennsylvania and Freiburg University has discovered how brain cells that
encode spatial information form «geotags» for specific memories and are activated immediately before those memories are recalled.
These low cost, direct to orbit, water tank monitors are one of Myriota's first deployments and are being deployed under a project co-funded by the Australian and New Zealand CRC
for Spatial Information (CRCSI).
«Humans» built - in GPS is our 3 - D sense of smell: Like homing pigeons, humans have a nose for navigation because our brains are wired to convert smells
into spatial information.»
The balance between these two signaling systems, they show, is necessary to establish the carefully controlled pattern of nerve connections required to
convey spatial information in the correct order from the eye to the brain.
«This is the first biological validation of a computational model developed in the early 1980s that suggested that two such forces would be necessary to guide axons as they establish the connections that relay
spatial information from one part of the nervous system to another,» said study author Yimin Zou, PhD, assistant professor of neurobiology at the University of Chicago.
Our results call into question the current emphasis on social rather than ecological explanations for the evolution of large brains in primates and evoke a range of ecological and developmental hypotheses centred on frugivory,
including spatial information storage, extractive foraging and overcoming metabolic constraints.
In their new study, the researchers reveal that one of the main classes of basket cells plays a key role in how the brain represents and remembers our environment, called
spatial information coding.
Geospatial technologies provide methods to aid in the systematic documentation of evidence as it is collected in the field, analyze the spatial relationships and preserve data in the lab, and provide new ways of communicating complex relationships and
spatial information visually to a variety of audiences.
«With very
specific spatial information, we could be better informed about how cellular processes or therapies involving oxidation are going to operate.»
The information that has to be processed passes these three regions successively like a traffic route with each region processing
different spatial information of the environment.
The decreased communication between the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex suggests that people with DTD can't
monitor spatial information or the relationship between landmarks while moving around, which makes it difficult for them to produce and update a mental map.
The hippocampus, for instance,
represents spatial information using «place» cells that map the environment, potentially explaining how it might contribute to the «where» component of episodic memory.
Since all receptor neurons of the same type converge onto the same glomerulus, it was thought that
spatial information linked to their location on the antenna was therefore lost.
Spatial information technology products include technologies and data from Geospatial Information Systems, Global Positioning Systems and other related services.

It evoked «a place where mapping — the communication of
spatial information through graphic means — shades into something unexpected and fantastical.
BCCA uses similar spatial aggregation and quantile mapping steps as BCSD but
obtains spatial information from a linear combination of historical analogues for daily large - scale fields, avoiding the need for monthly aggregates.
Emphasis on using open - source tools and scripting languages to ingest and manage real - world data, orchestrate complex analyses, and
communicate spatial information.
For the new One (M8), HTC has stuck to its guns and used the same 4 - megapixel «UltraPixel» sensor, but has combined it with another «camera» (essentially a sensor that captures
extra spatial information) and Qualcomm's Image Signal Processing chip to allow for extensive after - effects to be applied.
Moving the loudspeakers away from room boundaries will tend to improve stereo imaging and spaciousness by attenuating and delaying boundary reflections, thus optimizing direct sound and helping to
preserve spatial information in the recording.
Supervised and directed First Army G2 all - source team of counterterrorist, geo -
spatial information system and general military intelligence analysts charged with dissemination pertinent intelligence.
The NNTT website provides an online searchable database of claims, determinations and ILUAs, as well as online access to native
title spatial information and data (e.g. maps of native title determinations).

To that end, ARM has launched the Inaugural Campaigns for ARM Research using Unmanned Systems, or ICARUS, an internal initiative at the third ARM Mobile Facility at Oliktok Point, Alaska, that is collecting
spatial information about the rapidly changing arctic environment using unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and tethered balloon systems (TBS) in conjunction with ground - based instruments.
Researchers from Hokkaido University and their colleagues found that male cockroaches can «see» fine structures of odor plumes, thanks to their finely tuned odor sensors on their antennae and neural circuits that
convey spatial information to the brain.
The clearest relevance of reification for painting stems from its use in Gestalt psychology from the Berlin school of the 19th century to describe an object having
more spatial information than is actually present, an idea that translates in today's terminology to: «the sum is greater than its parts.»
Like homing pigeons, humans have a nose for navigation because our brains are wired to convert smells
into spatial information, new research from the University of California, Berkeley, shows.
Researchers from King's College London have discovered a specific class of inhibitory neurons in the cerebral cortex which plays a key role in how the brain
encodes spatial information.
