We note that the functional nature of any spatial data is intrinsically geographic, being capable to reference point-level locations via coordinates (latitude or longitude) or area-level projections via shapefiles to intuitively display patterns, distributions, or trends of data within geographical boundaries that are complemented with descriptive place-based summary geostatistics (Adrian et al., 2020). Such capabilities are projected through maps which visualize real-life stories of a studied problem. ...
