1. A method for spatially associating disparate data comprising: selecting a spatial layer from at least one data system, the spatial layer having a plurality of spatial layer data attributes; selecting a non-spatial layer disparate dataset from the at least one data system, the non-spatial layer disparate dataset having a plurality of dataset data attributes; selecting a common data attribute that is common to at least one spatial layer data attribute and at least one dataset data attribute of the non-spatial layer disparate dataset; storing a configuration definition in a memory, the configuration definition defining a linking relationship between the selected spatial layer common data attribute and the selected dataset common data attribute; processing the configuration definition to spatially link the non-spatial layer disparate dataset and the spatial layer at a spatial processing system executing on at least one processor to create a spatially linked dataset; spatially accessing the spatially linked dataset using the spatial processing system and, in response thereto, selecting at least a portion of the spatial layer data attributes from the spatial layer and at least another portion of the dataset data attributes from the non-spatial layer disparate dataset; and using the spatial processing system, generating the selected portion of the spatial layer data attributes and the selected other portion of the dataset data attributes for display.
