Vector and Raster Data

Vector Data:Vector is a data structure, used to store spatial data. Vector data is comprised of lines or arcs, defined by beginning and end points, which meet at nodes. http://www.geom.unimelb.edu.au/gisweb/GISModule/GIST_Vector.htm



Raster Data: In its simplest form, a raster consists of a matrix of cells (or pixels) organized into rows and columns (or a grid) where each cell contains a value representing information, such as temperature. Rasters are digital aerial photographs, imagery from satellites, digital pictures, or even scanned maps. http://webhelp.esri.com/arcgisdesktop/9.2/index.cfm?TopicName=What_is_raster_data%3F

Drunk Driving in Toronto

Wonder what the cell phone and texting while driving maps would look like. http://www.oprah.com/packages/no-phone-zone.html

Chances of an accident:
Sober = Control
Drunk driving = 4x more likely
Talking on phone = 4x
Texting = 8x
