Glossary Online
Adopting a critical approach and highlighting many of the common research challenges
of the field, Geographic Information Systems and Science helps students understand
how gis enables the digital representation of the Earth’s forms, patterns, and processes.
Designed for users already familiar with gis, this concise handbook invites students to
think broadly about the assumptions embedded in Gis practice today in order to make
superior, critically informed decisions in their future studies and careers.
O A concise format provides clear, straightforward coverage of the key ideas
and applications of gis that students need to grasp.
□ Advanced coverage prepares students interested in the fundamental
research challenges facing the field for higher study in gis.
a Canadian and international examples give students the opportunity to
apply what they learn to familiar situations, processes, and landforms.
□ A chapter on emerging trends offers cutting-edge insight into promising
advancements in the acquisition, handling, and use of geographic
information.
□ Extensive graphs, illustrations, tables, and formulas help students
visualize and interpret complex concepts and relationships.
□ A centralized reference guide consisting of five appendices covers
information gis practitioners need to consult regularly, including details on
mathematical notation and terminology, mathematical graphs, information
measure, and rotation transformation.
□ An online suite of resources designed to be used in conjunction with the
text gives students the opportunity to test their comprehension by working
through carefully constructed exercises and questions.
