- The outline determines the colour, type, and thickness of the outline. Next to the colour and transparency, the outline is the most critical for distinguishing between different elements. For example, thicker lines for roads usually signify roads of a higher order (such as highways), while thin dashed lines might signify footpaths, inaccessible to road vehicles.

Spatial processing uses spatial information to extract new meaning from GIS data. It does so by using the __spatial relationship__ of different layers or features. Spatial relationships describe how things are located in relation to one another. In humanitarian work, this helps answer critical questions like “Which communities are near a water source?” or “Which areas are isolated from health services?”. Or, we might want to identify the best locations for distributing aid, assess flood risk areas, or plan evacuation routes.

We have already encountered spatial relationships in module 3 in the subchapter on __[geometrical operators](https://giscience.github.io/gis-training-resource-center/content/Modul_3/en_qgis_data_queries.html#geometric-operators)__— also called geometrical predicates in QGIS.

The table below describes spatial relationships and gives examples when these spatial relationships are relevant in humanitarian aid.

Another type of geospatial data is raster data. Raster data consists of cells that are organized into a grid with
rows and columns, thus forming a raster. Each cell, or pixel, contains a value which holds information (for
example, temperature, or population density). Since raster data consists of pixels, aerial photographs or satellite
imagery can also be used as raster data, if they have geographical coordinates (see [georeferencing](/content/Modul_3/en_qgis_georeferencing.md)).

Independent from the type of exercise, you should briefly go over the following points with the trainees at the beginning of the exercise:

1. __Aim of the exercise:__ In general, a hands-on exercise should start with explaining the goal of the exercise. For example: _„This exercise aims to teach the process of basic spatial data processing using the tools Clip, Merge and dissolve."_ This is a good opportunity to highlight the practical use of the tools the participants will learn to boost motivation.
2. __Background:__ Ideally, the exercise is built around a real-world example or a fictional scenario within the humanitarian work. In this case, you should quickly explain the background and story. An example of this is the exercise in module 3 ([Exercise: Nigeria Floods](https://giscience.github.io/gis-training-resource-center/content/Modul_3/en_qgis_modul_3_ex1.html)).

An example of this is the exercise in module 3 ([Exercise 4: Nigeria Floods](https://giscience.github.io/gis-training-resource-center/content/Module_3/en_qgis_module_3_ex4.html)).
3. __Exercise Data:__ Most hands-on exercises use real-world data (from [HDX](https://data.humdata.org), for example). Each dataset used in the exercise should be explained shortly. This information can be found on each exercise on the platform. Make sure that everybody has downloaded the exercise data before you start. Note that some trainees are not familiar with `zip.` files. Make sure the trainees unzip the folders before trying to import them into QGIS and take the time to solve any other issues concerning the exercise data.
