1Loss of information
If a geo-analysis model is presented in abstract conceptual form, then the model can express quantitative processes and calculation methods, but users find it difficult to understand and comprehend the model structure
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates physical model objects that copy and represent the abstract geo-analysis model components. These physical copies use tangible materials (clay, plasticine, foam, cardboard) to replicate the structure, flow paths, and relationships of the abstract model, making it accessible to users who cannot easily comprehend the abstract mathematical formulation.
Solution Approach 2:
The physical model object serves as an intermediary between the abstract geo-analysis model and the user. It translates the intangible mathematical concepts into tangible form that users can touch, manipulate, and visualize, thereby bridging the gap between abstract theory and user comprehension.
2Productivity
If geo_analysis models are expressed through abstract processes and calculations, then they can perform complex geographical simulations, but users cannot quickly understand the organization structure and application method
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the geo_analysis model into discrete, identifiable components (input data elements, calculation processes, output results) that are represented as separate physical objects. This segmentation allows users to examine and understand each component individually rather than being overwhelmed by the complex abstract model as a whole.
Solution Approach 2:
Different colors are used to represent different types of model components and data elements in the physical model object. This color-coding system enables users to quickly identify and distinguish between various elements (e.g., input data, calculation processes, output results) without needing to read detailed documentation.
3Measurement precision
If the geo-analysis model uses complex calculation methods and algorithms, then it can accurately calculate geographical indicators, but the abstract nature makes it hard to express quantitative processes with entities
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the abstract mathematical and algorithmic representation with a physical, tactile model system. Instead of presenting complex formulas and code, the model uses physical objects and their spatial relationships to represent quantitative processes, making the complex calculations tangible and visualizable.
