spatialne

Spatialne is a Polish adjective borrowed from the English term spatial, used to describe things related to space, geometry, or geographic extent. In technical and scientific writing it denotes spatial aspects of data, objects, or analyses, and it is widely seen in fields dealing with space in a geographic or geometric sense.

In Polish grammar, spatialne is the neuter plural form used with plural nouns such as dane or informacje, and functions as an attributive modifier meaning “spatial.” Examples include spatialne dane (spatial data) and spatialne informacje (spatial information). The term is common in contexts where space, position, or shape are relevant.

Common domains that employ spatialne include geoinformatics, cartography, urban planning, architecture, robotics, and computer graphics. In geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing, spatialne is used to discuss concepts such as spatialne zapytania (spatial queries), analiza przestrzenna (spatial analysis), bazy danych przestrzennych (spatial databases), and indeksy przestrzenne (spatial indexes).

Usage and reception vary by context. In Polish-language technical literature, spatialne often coexists with native terms such as przestrzenne or geograficzne, with the choice depending on audience and discipline. Overall, spatialne serves as a concise bridge to discuss space-related data and methods in a bilingual or international technical setting.
