-------------------------------------
Hi Peter, after some Googling I found a working link for it:
http://www.scribd.com/doc/47109359/Hengl-2009-GEOSTATe2c1-f
Basically in that book it talks about data structures for representing spatial
data, including the core one I mentioned above. I was trying to think of how to
use it in our framework.

> The QuadTreeNode has the concept of a data container per node in the QTree,
> but I'd like to extend this to a general SIS spatial data type. This would in
> part be motivated by e.g., [1], where the suggestion is something like:

> Any measurement we take in Earth and environmental sciences, although this is
> often ignored, has a spatio-temporal reference. A spatio-temporal reference
> is determined by (at least) four parameters:
> 1. geographic location (longitude and latitude or projected X,Y coordinates);
> 2. height above the ground surface (elevation);
> 3. time of measurement (year, month, day, hour, minute etc.);
> 4. spatio-temporal support (size of the blocks of material associated with
> measurements; time interval of measurement);
