The relationship of geographic objects is the interaction between geographic objects. Any geographical objects are not independent, and have a certain relationship with other geographical objects. Besides, these associations are complex and diverse. The description of relationship of geographical objects in traditional GIS data model focuses on spatial relations. Other relationships often need complicated calculation and inference to obtain. So it's hard to completely express the complex relationships of geographical objects, and it does not completely meet human cognition of geographical phenomena. However, in pan-spatial system, according to the needs of the common geographic analysis, we can classify and express the relationship of spatiotemporal objects of multi-granularity, which is convenient for the pan-position abstraction and expression of the objective entity. The relationship of the objects can be divided into five categories: spatial relation, temporal relation, attribute relation, causal relation and cognitive relation. Finally, we use the geographic entity as a case to analyze the expression model of the relation.
