The question under which circumstances some statistical operation is valid,
i.e., rightfully applicable to geographic information for a given purpose, is
not only crucial for understanding and correctly applying statistics to spatial
data, it is also a major bottleneck in automating data science in Geography
and the Geosciences. Conceptual models of geographic information are
required for both handling geodata resources as well as geographic ques-
tion answering (geoQA). In this talk, I argue that we need better models
of quantities in spatial information. I present a novel theory of geographic
amounts that can be used to classify data sources and to constrain possible
data transformations to those valid for a certain purpose.
