A common need for artificial intelligence models in the broader geoscience is to represent and encode various types of spatial data, such as points (e. g., points of interest), polylines (e. g., trajectories), polygons (e. g., administrative regions), graphs (e. g., transportation networks), or rasters (e. g., remote sensing images), in a hidden embedding space so that they can be readily incorporated into deep learning models.
