What is speed density?

Could someone please give me an explanation as to what speed density is? I've heard it mentioned a couple of times and have no idea what it's all about.

Thanks.

Speed Density uses a Manifold Absolute Pressure sensor. The MAP is different from the MAF because it measures engine load, using manifold vacuum instead of intake air mass. More information: https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/...ML/000464.html
