In this chapter we outline some methods whereby such statistical properties may be viewed in an information geometric way. First we look at Poisson processes of extended objects then at coupled processes that relate void and density statistics, somewhat heuristically but intended to reveal the way the information geometry can be used to represent such near-Poisson spatial processes. The applications to cosmology here are based on the publications [63, 62, 64, 65].
