Effective use of today s vast geographic information (GI) resources requires more than just powerful technology for problem solving. It requires science to help us understand the way the world works, and to help us devise effective procedures for making decisions.
Effective use of today’s powerful GIS technology requires an understanding of the science of problem-solving that underpins it. Since the first edition published over a decade ago, Geographic Information Science and Systems has led the way, with its focus on the scientific principles that support 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 Geographic Information Science and Systems a best-seller across a broad spectrum of disciplines.
This fully updated 4th edition continues to deliver on these strengths, ensuring readers gain a comprehensive understanding of both the theory and practice of GIS.
