| Résumé : |
Effective use of powerful GIS technology requires an understanding of the science of problem-solving that underpins it.
Since the first edition was published a decade ago, this book has led the way, with its focus on the scientific principles that underpin GIS usage. It has also provided thorough, up-to-date coverage of GIS procedures, techniques and public policy applications. This unique combination of science, technology and practical problem solving has made this book a bestseller across a broad spectrum of disciplines.
This fully updated 3rd edition continues to deliver on these strengths.
KEY FEATURES OF THE THIRD EDITION
Presents principles and techniques of GIS alongside the latest trends in data, software, societal exploitation of technologies, and industry developments.
Thorough coverage of principles, techniques, analysis as well as management and policy requires an understanding of the science of problem-solving that underpins it.
