Geospatial visualization can affect historical thinking by being able to ask more questions about geographic distribution through analyzing the placement of various occurrences. Additionally, it can allow for more interactive platforms and visualizations for education on historical topics. This allows us to create projects that are more visually appealing and that promote historical thinking and questions. I think that historical inquiry relates to both concepts of space in different but equally important ways. Since absolute space is more of a theoretical perspective, it relates to historical inquiry through its conceptual ideas. The Representation space of historical inquiry relates more to the physical aspects of history rather than the information. The largest pitfall of the idea of geospatial visualization is the possibility of skewing these visualizations to look like something other than what they are. I have seen this done many times with graphs and data and other visualizations where the data is accurately represented; however, the visualization is changed to convey a different bias to the onlooker who is not necessarily wary of possible influences. When trying to convey information on geographic distribution for different historical purposes, it is possible that projects might wish to adjust visualizations to infer other things for one reason or another. Along the same lines, maps convey information in their own way in a distorted way since they do not show the intricacies of a society where the historical inquiry is taking place. There are also differences in representation based on map style such as google maps versus google earth, these differences will cause analysis to be skewed based on the representations, If viewing a map that is showing major roadways there may be a tendency to base inferences off of these. However, if viewing a map that is showing topography, landforms, and other natural and manmade formations there might be more other inferences made. If there are different inferences made based on view alone this is cause for many concerns since it is changing the thinking of those analyzing the material.  Maps may not always be an accessible tool for people on the user side and the creator side. When making the map, it is possible that there may be fees involved from the use of map tiles depending on what servicer is used. Additionally, since a map is such a large file, there is a strong likelihood that they will be inaccessible to those who have poor internet service. From many historical projects I have looked at and analyzed this has always been an issue, even with rather decent internet service. Since most of the projects using these tools do not anticipate internet traffic of any kind, there is also often an issue of lag or crashing by even a small group looking individually at these visualizations.
