Define these three types of patterns found on spatial distribution maps.
Uniform
Random
Clumped/Clustered
Uniform patterns on spatial distribution maps refer to a consistent and even distribution of points or objects across the study area. This means that each point or object is roughly the same distance from its neighboring points or objects.
Random patterns on spatial distribution maps indicate a completely unpredictable and haphazard distribution of points or objects. There is no discernible pattern or trend as to where the points or objects are located in relation to each other.
Clumped or clustered patterns on spatial distribution maps signify a grouping or concentration of points or objects in specific areas. There may be a cluster of points or objects close together, followed by a gap where there are few or no points or objects, and then another cluster further away. This pattern suggests that certain factors or conditions are causing the points or objects to aggregate in specific areas.
