The new science of complex systems provides new ways of understanding the physical, biological, ecological, and social universe. The ecological model provides a theoretical framework for investigating the inter and intra linkages of a hierarchical system. The spatial technology provides a unique platform for integrating the multiscale data with a spatiotemporal data structure. This talk will discuss the design and applications of spatial database based on ecological approaches, including the principles for building a hierarchical database with a comparable data structure of time and space, the functions for identifying the spatial patterns and structures as well as their changes, the methodologies for examining the inter and intra-sectional linkages or inter- and intra-regional linkages (or ecological chains) of a socioeconomic system, and the application of the online spatial system (China Geo-Explorer) for some case studies. The future directions for the spatial study of ecological systems will also be discussed.
<br>
<br>This webinar will be presented by Shuming Bao, Director of the China Data Center.
