Abstract
There are dynamic input and output functions of culture in the cognitive-linguistic process. Culture, the ongoing outcome of organized experience, is characterized by inputs of differentiation and generalization. The outputs are individual and collective behavior. The design challenge for geographical information systems (GIS) is the accommodation of dynamic interaction of human behavior within and among cultures. The variety of meanings attached to people, places, and things, beliefs, attitudes, and values as timespatial phenomena are organizable using the combinatorial principle.
