Geographical Information (GI)

Information that refers to location on the Earth's surface has both spatial and a thematic component

Census data
Hospitals admissions data
Relief data(e.g, from contours)
Information on transport networks
A text about a specific place (e.g, Defoe's description of London during the Plague)
A photograph or painting of a building

Locational component can be an explicit (e.g, a co-ordinate or a precisely defined administrative unit) or vaguer (e.g, "The area around Philippines" or "in Filipino speaking areas")
