Application of Visualization Technology in Spatial Data Mining

Spatial data mining and spatial data visualization are two comparatively popular technical methods in recent years, in essence, both purpose is to find geography phenomena what spatial data express and find various knowledge and laws implicit in geography entity. so it is necessary to combine both organically and form a new research direction - Visualization Spatial Data Mining (VSDM). This paper mainly discusses the key relationships of visualization and spatial data mining, the main Application of visualization theories and technologies in spatial data mining, the main methods and examples of visualization spatial data mining, we also present a reference model Visualization Spatial Data.
