Abstract
Abstract Quantitative spatial data are important inputs for fueling the engines of many environmental models that determine future implications of current resource use, policies, and interventions. End products of applying such models are often mappings of indexes for level of potential environmental impact, which then become guides to allocation of economic and technical resources for amelioration. Errors in quantitative spatial data will propagate through environmental models and find expression in the resulting impact indexes. However, the consequences of such errors for decision‐making may well depend upon where the errors occur. There may be relatively little confusion introduced by moderate errors occurring in a vicinity that otherwise has consistently high values of a variable. In contrast, errors compound confusion in areas that are highly variable. Errors can also substantially distort the apparent state of areas that otherwise have consistently low values of a variable. It is therefore desirable to have a systematic means of determining spatial organization in mappings of quantitative variables, both for input variables to environmental models and for indexes of potential impact generated by the models. Modern computer capabilities for visualization of surfaces are helpful in this regard, but their interpretation is subjective. Echelons present an innovative alternative for objectively determining quantitative spatial structure for direct mapping, either with or without computer‐assisted visualization. Thus, they can facilitate analysis of errors associated with environmental models that take quantitative layers as input, or produce quantitative output layers, or both.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
