                       Vector Images

        The storage of information in a database

    The information in a relational database is stored in a set of 'cells', each of which is identified by its row and column position in an orthogonal grid. Each row of cells constitutes an individual record, whereas each column (known as a field)  in the grid, represents a specific type of information. Usually field 1  would contain a unique value that identifies the row , and the 2nd and 3rd fields the X and Y coordinate values. For example, the cell at row 14 column 1 would likely contain the value '14', the outcrop number, whereas the cell at row 14, column 4 may contain either a numeric value or a name representing the rock type present at the outcrop.
  Imagine that you have visited an outcrop in the field, that you know its location on a coordinate grid (e.g. x=20, y = 45), and that at this site you have identified the rock type, measured the magnetic intensity, and determined the degree of weathering of the rock. If this information is to be recorded in a database or spreadsheet, the database would need to contain the following fields (columns):

        a geographic identifier for the outcrop (e.g. a numerical value - 1,2,3,...);
        x-coordinate position of the outcrop;
        y-coordinate position of the outcrop;
        a rock type identifier (e.g. a numerical value of 1 for granite, 2 for diabase, etc.);
        the magnetic intensity, as measured by the magnetometer;
        a value representing the degree of weathering measured on a scale of, say, 0 to 10.

    The geographic identifier, rock type identifier, magnetic intensity, etc, are known as the ATTRIBUTES of the point location.  Other attributes might be elevation, the strike orientation of bedding and/or foliation, the angle of dip of the bedding/foliation, the gravity value, chemical composition of the rock after laboratory analysis of a sample taken from the site, etc.

    To aid in the visual inspection of maps on which are plotted attribute values, for example a map showing the variation in the degree of weathering, each attribute value may be assigned a specific colour and/or symbol,  selected from a ‘PALETTE’, where a palette is simply a table relating a set of attribute numbers, or range of numbers,  to a set of arbitrarily selected colours.  An example of a colour palette file might be:

    1 red (the value 1 represents the colour red)
    2 green
    3 cyan, etc.
    or
    1 cyan
    2 red
    3 magenta, etc.

    If we generate a coordinate data file with the following structure:

    X-Coordinate: x1, Y-Coordinate: y1, Geographic Identifier: 1
    X-Coordinate: x2, Y-Coordinate: y2, Geographic Identifier: 2
    X-Coordinate: x3, Y-Coordinate: y3, Geographic Identifier: 3

    the information contained in this file would allow us to draw a map showing a set of point symbols, each symbol coloured according to the value of its geographic identifer and the colour that corresponds to that value in some selected colour palette. Such a map would not be very useful however, because it would merely show a set of points each of a different colour.

    On the other hand, if we generate an attribute values file containing the following fields:

    Geographic Identifer: 1, Rock Type 1
    Geographic Identifer: 2, Rock Type 2
    Geographic Identifer: 3, Rock Type 3
    Geographic Identifer: 3, Rock Type 2
    Geographic Identifer: 3, Rock Type 1, etc

    the computer software can use this information to substitute the Rock Type attribute value for the Geographic Identifer value in the coordinate data file, such that now the locations plotted by the computer would assume a colour corresponding to the Rock Type value, and the colour would permit visual inspection of the distribution of the various rock types found within the map area. If we were to create a gravity values file, the colours would change to reflect the gravity value attached to the coordinate location. In this way we can generate a rock type map, a magnetic values map, and a degree of weathering map. These maps constitute a map layer set, and are all POINT VECTOR maps.

    The following explanation of value files is taken from the IDRISI HELP file:

    Values files contain tabular data about map features. They are most often associated with vector layers, but can also be linked to image layers.  (The distinction between vector and image (raster) layers will be explained below).  In the case of vector layers, the vector data file primarily contains information on the geographic definition of features (i.e., their location and shape). The only attribute that is stored is a numeric identifier. It is possible to use this identifier to refer to a feature characteristic (e.g., all lines with an identifier of 3 represent major roads). However, it is also possible to give each feature a unique identifier, and then to associate those identifiers with rows of data in a data table. In this case, each column of the table can contain a different attribute about that feature. Each row in such a table is known as a record, while each column is called a field. With such a logic, each feature in the vector file is linked to a record in the data table by means of its identifier. To do so, the data table needs to contain an identifier field (usually the first field). Other fields then contain information about those features (e.g., population, predominant land use, elevation, etc.).
    Unlike vector layers, image (i.e raster) layers are not usually associated with values files (since the data contained in the cells of an image represent attribute data to start with). However, it is possible to adopt an identical logic to that stated above. In this case, we assign to each cell a numeric value which acts as an identifier of the feature to which it belongs. Thus, for example, all of the cells in district 6 might be assigned a 6. An image of this type is referred to as an index image. It can then be associated with a values file in exactly the same manner as a vector layer. IDRISI for Windows supports a variety of formats for values files, from simple 2 column ASCII files (containing only an identifier field and a single attribute), to multi-field tables in commonly used database formats (such as ACCESS, dBASE and FoxPro). In addition, to facilitate the maintenances and analysis of such tables, IDRISI for Windows provides a database management facility known as DATABASE WORKSHOP.  It is important to reiterate here that image layers are rarely associated with values files, but can be, and that vector files are often associated with values files, but don't have to be. Many users make extensive use of a raster GIS such as IDRISI for Windows, and never use such a feature. However, they can be useful in cases where a great deal of information is being recorded about the same set of features.

                           Drawing elements/objects

   In order to draw a straight line as a vector object, we would need to know the coordinate position of the beginning and of the end of the line. These positions are called the nodes of the line. If the lines are not straight they are called polylines or arcs, and the change in orientation of the line segments constituting the arc are defined by point locations known as ‘vertices’. Different kinds of lines, for example, faults of various type or age, can be given attribute values such that they would be plotted on the map in separate colours.

  POINTS, LINES, POLYLINES, POLYGONS,& TEXT

    Vector drawing elements/objects - click to see enlarged version of the above diagram.

   Polygons are polyline objects whose beginning and end nodes occupy the same coordinate position. They may be ‘closed’ or ‘unclosed’. As in the case of lines, polygons representing different rock units can be displayed in a colour defined by an attribute value. Points, Lines, Polylines, Polygons (areas), and Text are the principle drawing objects used to construct vector images.

                       What do IDRISI Vector image files look like?

    The following is a file of three line values.

    1 2                              '1' is the object identifier; '2' is the number of nodes and vertices (2 = a straight line)
    0 0                              '0   0' is the X and Y coordinate value of the beginning node of line 1
    20 20                          '20 20' is the X and Y coordinate value of the end node of line 1
    2 2                              '2' is the object identifier; '2' is the number of nodes and vertices (2 = a straight line)
    75 75                          '75 75' is the X and Y coordinate value of the beginning node of line 2
    100 100                      '100 100' is the X and Y coordinate value of the end node of line 2
    3 2                               line 3, etc
    25 25
    60 40
    0 0                             The final ‘0 0’ is an end of file marker.

    The following is also a line file. What does it indicate?
    2 2
    0 0
    20 20
    2 2
    75 75
    100 100
    2 2
    25 25
    60 40
    0 0

    What would a file to draw three triangles look like?

    The following is an attribute values file relating the outcrop geographic identifier in the first column to the fault type value (e.g. 5 = normal; 6 = reverse; 7 = wrench) in the second column:

     1     5
     2     6
     3     7

    ARCINFOalso stores the coordinate and attribute data in separate files. For example:

   LOCATION FILE
    1
    34.98    82.86
    27.70    78.06
    25.92    74.78
    END
    2
    51.18    47.68
    53.87    53.45
    57.28    74.51
    50.77    78.84
    40.09    83.02
    34.98    82.86
    END
    3
    62.69   81.47
    68.58    86.89
    83.75    87.20
    87.46    77.45
    83.28    69.86
    67.80    66.77
    64.71    72.03
    62.38    77.29
    62.69   81.47
    END

    ATTRIBUTE FILE
    1,     1,     0,    0
    2,     2,     0,    0
    3,     4,    0,    0

    The first parameter in the Location and Attribute files links the coordinate data of each drawing object (entity) to the attribute represented by the second parameter in the Attribute file. In the above Attribute file, the first attribute value of ‘1’ might identify entity '1' as a solid line, whereas the second attribute value ‘2’ might indicate that entity '2' is a dashed line, and the attribute ‘4' might identify the entity as a barbed line.

                            Raster Images

   In raster images, points are not located according to their geographic coordinate values, but according to their position in a continuous list (column) of sequential values representing cells read from left to right (columns) and top to bottom (rows) in an orthogonal grid of attribute values.
    If we know the map grid is, for example, 4 rows by 5 columns, the image file can be set up as a single list of 25 numerical values, with each number representing the attribute value of the ‘cell’ corresponding to the intersection of the specified row and column. For example, in the case of a data file composed of the following 25 attribute values:

    100
    145
    23
    178
    1
    44
    etc, to:
    267
        where 100 is the attribute value of cell row 1 column 1; 145 is the attribute value of cell row 1 column 2, etc, to 267 the value of cell row 5 column 5, the corresponding raster image would look like:


 

    There should be no need to specify the coordinate location of the points. All we really need to know is the number of columns in the image, since the total number of cells divided by the number of columns gives us the number of rows. (Nevertheless, it should be noted that Idrisi requires that you specify both the number of rows and columns.)
    The actual dimensions of the cells in the image depends on the number of columns and the size (metres, kilometres, degrees) of the image in the x-direction. If an image has 100 columns and its size in the x-direction is 100 kilometers, the ‘resolution’ of each cell is 1 kilometer; if the size in the x-direction is 1 meter, the resolution is 1 cm. Either the size or the resolution can be specified as arbitrary values. You will note that if an image is composed of isolated points or lines, most of the cells in the image will have no attribute, and will consequently be assigned a background value of ‘0’. The colour corresponding to ‘0’ depends on the palette used to display the image. A line would be represented as a locus of contiguous (horizontal, vertical, or diagonal) cells all with the same attribute value; and if there is only one line on the map, all the surrounding cells within the orthogonal matrix would have a value of 0.

    Procedure:

    The following exercise has no special geological significance. It has been devised to introduce the essential concepts of GIS, and the mechanics of preparing vector and raster images using the IDRISI software.

    A) Making a Vector Image



   PLEASE READ THE WHOLE OF THE PARAGRAPH BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH EACH INSTRUCTION.
    UNDERLINED NAMES IN THE FOLLOWING TEXT ARE IDRISI MODULES ACCESSED VIA A MENU. THE PRECEDING GREEN HIGHLIGHTED NAME IS THE MENU NAME DISPLAYED IN THE MENU BAR, e.g. FileDocument

    NOTE: 1) IN IDIRISI, WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO ENTER A FILE NAME, DOUBLE CLICK THE NAME ENTRY BOX TO RETRIEVE THE ‘PICK FILE’ MENU, AND DOUBLE CLICK THE REQUIRED FILE NAME (or click the name and click ‘OK’) DO NOT TYPE IN THE FILE NAME; 2) .IN IDRISI, OTHER THAN IN THE CASE OF EDIT IN Data Entry, WHEN YOU ENTER THE NAME OF A FILE, OR SAVE A FILE, DO NOT TYPE IN THE FILE EXTENSION.


   1) Go to your folder in ‘users on ‘Earthnt’ (H:)’, where ‘H’ is the name of the mapped drive Earthnt\Users on your computer (it may be some other letter other than ‘H’), and make a folder named ‘your initials1’; KEEP READING - (do not include the quotes, and ‘your initials’ really means your initials; e.g. wrc1). If you have not previously used the computers in room 17 and are baffled by this instruction, do not get excited, stay cool and politely request the help of the instructor.

    IF YOU HAVE NOT COMPLETED INSTRUCTION 1 OR HAVE NOT UNDERSTOOD INSTRUCTION 1, DO NOT PROCEED TO INSTRUCTION 2.

    2) Load IDRISI (via Start and Programs).
    Once IDIRISI is loaded and occupies the screen, you can get back to your desktop (or WEBCT site if you are addessing this file via WEBCT)  by using the 'ALT-TAB Window TOGGLE' - hold the TAB key down with your thumb and click the TAB key to bring up the 'WINDOW TOGGLE' window. IF you have several windows open, click the TAB key while still holding down the ALT key until the desired window is defined by the selection box. Alternatively, you can reduce the size of both the IDRISI (and WEBCT) windows so that they are both partially visible.
    Set the IDRISI Environment to the folder you have just created by clicking (press the left mouse button) Environment on the Idrisi menu bar and then the ENVIRON tab in the drop-down selection menu.

    The above ENVIRON window will appear. Select the drive (e.g. Earthnt’ (H:)) in the Drive selection box, and the directory (your name/yourintials1) path to your folder. Set the default reference units to metres. The ‘Path of Working Data Directory’ box should show something like "h:\wrchurch\wrc1". If it doesn’t, get help from the instructor. If you are not sure that what you are doing is correct, get help.

3) As illustrated in the following window, click Data Entry on the IDRISI menu bar, and then Edit.  On the Edit menu: click the ‘Other file in data directory’ button’, and in the ‘File name:’ box enter the name ‘yourinitialstst1.vec’. (USE ONLY TWO INITIALS, and add ‘.vec’ the file extension for this kind of file to the file name. ) Click the‘OK’ button.

    Type in the code for a ‘line’ entity file as follows:

    1  2           (this should be typed as: 1 space 2, not 12)
    0  0
    20  20
    2  2
    75  75
    100  100
    3  2
    25  25
    60  40
    0  0

    Click ‘Save’; click ‘Exit’.

    4) Follow the same procedure to make an attribute values file named ‘yourinitialstst1.val (note the file extension for this kind of file is ‘.val’), e.g.

    1 5
    2 6
    3 7

    5) For each vector or attribute file it is necessary to create an accompanying DOCUMENT file in which are reported the values to be ascribed to various parameters, e.g. for the vector file wrctst1.vec there must exist a document file wrctst1.dvc, for the attribute values file there must exist a DOCUMENT file wrctst1.dvl.
    From the IDRISI menu bar select  File-Document to make a vector document file for ‘yourinitialstst1.vec’: click File, click Document, click the ‘Vector file’ button, double click the File to document file name entry box, double click ‘yourfilenametst1’ in the Pick file list, and then the ‘OK’ button.  The following DOCUMENT window will appear.

     In the Document data entry box, enter:
    ‘Integer’as ID type,
    ‘Ascii’ as file type,
    ‘Line’ as Object type, (different kinds of drawing object – points, lines, polygons - must occupy their own image plane),
    ‘plane’ as Reference system,
    ‘meters’ as Reference units,
    the ‘MIN-MAX’ values as 0 and 100,
    and ‘unit distance’ as ‘1’, in the relevant boxes. Enter your name in the Title box.

    Try to think what each of these parameters means – it is useful to make a rough drawing of the template When you click the ‘OK’ button, the file will appear in your directory as the file ‘yourinitialstst1.dvc’.

    6) Also make a Document file for the Attribute values file, setting:
    ‘Records’ to the number of rows (3) in the attribute file,
    ‘Fields’ to 2 (the maximum allowed in this version of IDRISI),
    the Min. value to 5 and the Max. value to 7,
    set Value Units to ‘m’, Field 0 to ‘identifiers’, Field 1 to ‘Attribute’,
    and data type to ‘Integer’.
    Enter your name in the Title box.
    Again make a rough drawing of the template. When you click the ‘OK’ button, the file will be saved as ‘yourinitialstst1.dvl’.

    7) Display  the vector image by clicking Display on the IDRISI menu bar, followed by  Display Launcher. The following DISPLAY Window will appear.

     Click the ‘Vector file’ button, double click the ‘File to display box’ to select the vector file 'your inititalstst1', select the Qualitative 16 symbol palette option. Click OK to display the three lines you have defined in your 'yourinitialstst1.vec vector image file.

    Repeat this operation but this time click the ‘Connect to values file option’ and select the attribute values file 'yourinitialstst1'.
    The second image will be superimposed on the first. Click and drag the dark blue Tool Bar at the top of the image to reveal the first image.

    8) In Display-Symbol Workshop  open the qual16.sm1 symbol palette (click in sequence Display, Symbol Workshop, File, Open, and the Line button; double click the File name box, select qual16, and examine the nature of the pallette that should now be displayed. Explain to yourself why the lines in the two vector images have the colours they have.

    9) Select Display- Palette Workshop from the IDRISI menu bar and get the qual16.smp palette file by sequentially clicking, as shown in the Window below, File, Open, and then the Retrieve file from permanent library button in the Open window. Double click the File to open box, and select qual16. The Palette Workshop window should appear.

     The zero value below the first black tile will be coloured red. Click the tile to deselect it.
    Save the palette to your working directory in your disk area as qual16md. (Click in sequence the File, Save As, and the ‘Save file in working directory’ buttons. Type the file name qual16md into the ‘Save file as’ box, and click ‘OK’. When entering the file name do not add the .smp extension, IDRISI will do this for you). Now click the black tile, the '0' value will turn red indicating that it is selected. Make the ‘0’ tile white by setting the RED, GREEN, and BLUE values to 255 (drag the sliding buttons to the extreme right) -  if you don’t understand this, ask the instructor.
    Click the now white tile (the ‘0’ value will become black instead of red, meaning it has been deselected), and Save the now modified file - and even although you have already saved it! Exit the palette window. Re-examine the palette display to make sure that the change from black to white of the ‘0’ tile has been registered - sometimes the new file is saved but the 0 tile remains black ; we do not know why!! In this case, make the change once again, turn off the '0' tile, and 'Save' the file. Leave the palette menu displayed to the right of the screen. (You will use this palette in the display of the raster image you will next create.)

    B)Making a Raster Image

    1) Click Data Entry on the IDRISI menu bar, and then Edit. On the Edit menu: click the ‘Other file in data directory’ button’; and in the ‘File name:’ box enter the file name rast.img. In the IDRISI text editor, type a single column of 25 integer values in in any order but with the values being between 0 and 15. Save the file as rast.img to your directory. (NOTEthat the extension for this kind of file is ‘.img’, and because it is an 'Other file' the extension must be typed in as part of the file name.)

    2) Use File-Document to make a document file for rast.img file; (click File on the IDRISI menu bar, Document, the ‘Image file’ button; double click the ‘File to documentbox’, select the file ‘rast’ in the Pick File window, and click ‘OK’. In the Document window enter:
    the Columns and Rows as 5 x 5,
    Min-Max X and Y coordinates as 0 and 5 (i.e. a resolution of 1),
    Unit distance as ‘1’,
    Reference system as ‘plane’,
    Reference units as ‘meters’,
    Data type as ‘Integer’,
    File type as ‘Ascii’,
    and the Minimum value and Maximum value as 0 and 15 respectively.

    Make a summary drawing of the menu template and try to think of the significance of each of these parameters. (NOTE that the extension for this kind of file is ‘.doc’.). Click ‘OK’ to terminate

    3) Display the image in Display-Display Launcher, clicking the ‘Image file’ button, and selecting the user defined qual16md.smd palette. If you get a message asking whether Idrisi should convert the ascii file you have just created to a binary file, reply ‘YES’.

    4) You should now have an image composed of a 5 x 5 matrix of coloured squares (cells). Click the toobar icon with a ‘?’. The cursor symbol will change to a ‘plus’ (+) symbol. Click one of the cells. The attribute value of the cell will be displayed as ‘z: attribute value’ in the rightmost box in the display bar at the bottom of the screen. Because you have displayed the image with the ‘qual16md.smd’ palette, cells with a value of 0 will appear white rather than black.

    C)Converting a Vector image to a Raster image

    1) First create a raster image template corresponding to the vector image you wish to convert.
    In the Idrisi Data Entry menu select Initial, and click the ‘Define spatatial parameters individually’ button. Enter an output image name ‘yourinitialststi’ (‘i’ for initial’). The ‘integer’, and ‘binary’ buttons should also be selected, and the default value in the ‘initial value’ box should be left as ‘0’. Click the ‘Continue’ button and in the next menu enter the ‘Number of rows’ and ‘Number of columns’ as 512, the Min and Max X and Y coordinate values as 0,100, and the ‘value units’ as ‘1’. Click the ‘OK’ button.

    2) The following step is not entirely necessary, but would be carried out where it is required to create raster images from several different vector images with the same spatial parameters but different drawing objects, e.g. points, lines and polygons (each of which must occupy their own image plane). Rather than creating a new initial image each time as in step 1), it is easier to copy the intial raster image.

     Using the IDRISI COPY function in File-File maintenance, copy the image file ’yourinitialststi.img’ to a file named yourinitialststa.img by clicking File-File maintenance, then ‘Image’ in ‘Select file type:’. Click the file ’yourinitialststi.img’ and then the ‘Copy’ button. In the name window that should appear, enter the name of the file to create - ‘yourinitialststa (do not add the extension .img). The corresponding document file ‘yourinitialststi.doc’ will be copied automatically by Idrisi to a ‘yourinitialststa.doc’ file. If the file name ‘yourinitialststi’ does not appear in the ‘Select file from this list’ box, it means you have not successfully created a corresponding .DOC file.

    3) Edit the DOCUMENT file for the image ‘yourinitialststa (click File, Document, and the Image file button. Double click the ‘File to document box’, and select the file ‘yourinitialststa’ in the Pick File window. Change the Minimum and Maximum attribute values (NOT the Minimum and Maximum X and Y coordinate values) from 0 and 0 to 0 and 3, respectively. (Think about why you are providing this information.) The other parameters do not need to be changed.

    4) In the Reformat menu, select, Raster/Vector Conversion and LINERAS, and convert the vector image yourinitialstst1.vec to yourinitialststa.img.

    5) ONLY if you have not already done so (instruction A-9, above), in Display -> Palette Workshops get the qual16.smp palette file, make tile 0 white instead of black, and save as qual16md.smp.

    6) Display the image (Display inDisplay Launcher) using qual16md as the palette. Sometimes lines drawn in yellow do not appear on the new image, this is a hardware or server problem peculiar to the computers in room 17. In this case, re-display the image, but this time set the expansion factor (option below the ‘Name of File to Display’ box) to a higher value (less negative) than is shown.

    7) Overlay the raster image with the corresponding vector image using ‘Add Layer...’ in the Composer window (usually displayed on the right side of the screen) - if this window is not evident, check with the instructor. (NOTE: vector layers can be layered one on another; the last layer added is the top layer.)

    8) Examine the difference between the vector and raster lines by magnifying a section of one of the lines. (Use the  Window display (Blue outlined 'rectangle' icon – uses a click-and-drag rectangular marquee to outline the area to be magnified; you can reverse the zoom by making the drawing active, clicking the 'rectangle' icon, and then clicking with right hand mouse button.)

    D) Changing the attribute values of the displayed raster objects

    The attribute values of objects in a vector image can be interactively selected in the Display menu by choosing a values file to connect to. Furthermore, once a vector image is displayed, its attribute value and its associated palette file can also be changed from the Layer Properties menu (Click the Poperties bar in the Composer window, click ‘Use values file’, etc.). However, the attribute values of point and line image files cannot be changed interactively in this way; a new file has to be generated using the Assign module.  (NOTE: the attribute values of polygon images can however be changed from the Layer Properties menu, and in all cases the palette file can be changed by selecting a new palette file in the ‘Palette File’ box of the Properties menu.)

    1) Run Data Entry-Assign to enter ‘yourinitialststa.img’ as the name of the image file (Feature Definition Image box); ‘yourinitialstst1.val' as the name of the  attribute values file,  and‘yourinialststamd.img’ as the name of the new image.

    HOMEWORK
    Delete all the files and repeat sections A, C, and D, re-writing the ‘yourinitialstst1.vec’ file for a polygon image containing three triangles (remember, there are four points in a triangle, with the first and last points having the same coordinates).  (You can use the same values file, and overprint the same raster image files ‘yourinitialststa.img’ and ‘yourinialststamd.img’ when carrying out the instructions in sections C) and D) - however this may create some confusion and is  not recommended!)

    Print out the ‘yourinialststamd.img’ polygon image using the print function in the COMPOSER window, sign it, and hand it in to the instructor.

    SUMMARY: Now you understand the fundamental aspects of vector and raster images, the relationship between the geographic identifier, other attribute values, and the palette file. You can change the attribute values of vector objects using an attribute values file, convert a vector image to a raster image and overlay it with the vector image, and change the attribute values of the raster image.
