Encyclopedia of Geographic Information Science
- Karen Kemp - University of Southern California, USA
The Encyclopedia of Geographical Information Science provides a condensed but rich resource about themes broadly across the field. It also provides details about the key foundations of GIS, no matter what their disciplinary origins, and is, therefore, an important resource for both academic and corporate libraries.
Key Themes:
- Conceptual Foundations
- Cartography and visualisation
- Design aspects
- Data modeling
- Data manipulation
- Geocomputation
- Geospatial data
- Societorial Issues
- Spatial analysis
- Organizational and institutional aspects
