Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS)
Tables
Almost all of the tabular data used in a GIS are stored in relational database tables.
Relational Procedures in ArcGIS
In this lab, we will explore the fundamental relational database procedures available inthe ArcMap interface.
relational operator
[ESRI software] In ArcGIS Spatial Analyst, an operator that evaluates specific relational conditions. If a condition is TRUE, the output is assigned a value of 1. If the condition is FALSE, the output is assigned a value of 0.

Relation A relation is a tuple (H,B) with H, the header, and B, the body, a set of tuples that all have the domain H.
A relational database management system provides a straightforward formal structure for storing and managing information in tables. Data storage and retrieval are implemented with simple tables.

SPATIAL DATA RELATIONSHIPS
The nature of spatial data relationships are important to understand within the context of GIS.
DataScaping is an interactive visualization system for viewing and for exploring mutual relationships in environmental data.
In ArcView you do not specify the relation. Instead, it is implied by the dimensionality of the shapes. Points and multipoints have dimension zero, polylines have dimension one, and polygons have dimension two.

Relation
Relationship to other resources. For example, the GIS resource being described might be part of an SMR or landscape study, both of which might have entries of their own to which this element could provide a link.
Relational
Relational databases are an extension of the flat file. It consists of a series of related tables. The tables are interconnected via a key field.
Relational Database Management Systems: Software systems that store data in such a way that tables can be joined together based on one or more common items or keys.
Relational Database: A method of structuring data in the form of sets of records so that relationships between different entities and attributes can be used for data access and transformation.
Relational Database: A database structure composed of more than one flat file (2-dimensional arrays) that can be transformed to form new combinations because of relations between the data in the records, ...
Relational Database
A method of structuring data as collections of tables that are logically associated to each other by shared attributes.
Relational Database stores data in such a way that it can be added to, and used independently of, all other data stored in the database. Users can query a relational database without knowing how the information has been organized.
Relational Database A collection of data organized in two-dimensional tables consisting of named columns and (usually unique) rows.
Remotely Sensed Data Data collected from a distance.

Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) A database management system with the ability to access data organized in tabular files that may be related together by a common field (item).
Relational Database: Information storage system in which there is an association between two or more things. Organized according to relationships between data items.
Relationship to Sensitivity Periods
Depending on the time of year and the management objectives, even low intensity fires can be detrimental in certain areas.
Relationship to other movements
Most feminists take a holistic approach to politics, believing the saying of Martin Luther King Jr., "A threat to justice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere".
correlation Process of establishing contemporaneity of rocks or events in one area with rocks or events in another area.

- RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CLASSES
Once objects are grouped into classes - relationships between classes can be defined
Association: how many instances of one class can be associated with another class through multiplicity expressions.
A relational database is the perception of data as series of tables that are logically associated to each other by shared attributes (figure 3.6).
The relationship between NAD27 and NAD83 includes the change in the reference ellipsoid as well as modeling of the NAD27 distortions which exhibit regional trends in certain areas and regions where the distortions appear random.
The relationship between the surface distance represented by degrees of latitude and longitude. Moving north or south from the equator, where the aspect ratio is 1:1, the difference between the two increases.
The relationships between AGNs and Starbursts (described later), and their mutual association with Black Holes, will be established on page 20-4.
The relationship of the brightest to the darkest portions of a display image.
Control
A system of points which are used as fixed references for positioning other surveyed features.
This relationship is observed on real surface maps.
In the example below, surface observations and isobars (yellow contours) have been plotted.
3. The relationship of the start map and ROS maps should be logically correct, i.e. a starting source (a positive value in the start map) should not be located in a spread BARRIER (zero value in the ROS maps). Otherwise the program refuses to run.

scale Relationship existing between a distance on a map, chart, or photograph and the corresponding distance on the Earth. sea level (water level) Height of the surface of the sea at any given time.
While this relationship between lines of lines of latitude and longitude correctly maintains direction, it allows for distortion to occur to areas, shapes and distances. Nearest the Equator there is little distortion.
The spatial relationship between coverage features. For example, the topology of an arc contains its "from" and "to" nodes and its left and right polygons.

* Different relationships should be established, both horizontally across functions and vertically across levels of government and the private sector, to ensure that resources are used most effectively.
Usually those relations are not functions (e.g., the same point on the sphere may be represented by several points on the map).
Pour mettre en relation la surface du niveau moyen de la mer avec l'ellipsoïde de rfrence, il faut utiliser un modèle du goïde.
Spatial autocorrelation can be analyzed using correlograms, covariance functions and variograms (=semivariograms).
