Ian, I'm not actually talking about "data structures". When I say "data model" I'm really talking about a model or template for GIS data in a particular industry or application.
Thanks for the information.

I've got The Design and Analysis of Spatial Data Structures out of the library at work and am slowly working my way through it. I've already learned a bunch of stuff about point quadtrees and I'm only up to chapter two, so the the other two books Martin mentions may well also be worth checking out.
