Computer science provides a powerful tool that was virtually unknown three generations ago. Some of the classical fields of knowledge are geodesy (surveying), cartography, and geography. Electronics have revolutionized geodetic methods. Cartography has faced the dominance of the computer that results in simplified cartographic products. All three fields make use of basic components such as the Internet and databases.

The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is organized in three parts, Basics, Geographic Information and Applications. Some parts of the basics belong to the larger field of computer science. However, the reader gets a comprehensive view on geographic information because the topics selected from computer science have a close relation to geographic information.

The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is written for scientists at universities and industry as well as advanced and PhD students.





Part A Basics - Computer Science Modelers and theorists consider geographic information (GI) as being a subtopic of computer science. Many aspects of geographic information are almost pure information technology while others are more geographic information.
Part A is dedicated to the topics which have a close relation to information technology, including modeling, mathematics and statistics, databases, encoding, as well as data mining and knowledge discovery. Chap. 1 Modeling of Geographic Information (C. Roswell Chap. 2 Mathematics and Geostatistics (F. Gielsdorf, L. Gründig, T. Hillmann) Chap. 3 Databases (T. Brinkhoff, W. Kresse) Chap. 4 Encoding of Geographic Information (C. Portele) Chap. 5 Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery (S.-L. Wang, W.-Z. Shi)
Part B Geographic Information
Part B addresses all geographic information topics that primarily are more specific to space and time. Staring with on the description of geographic information systems (GIS), the following chapters cover geodetic foundations, the capture of spatial and temporal data and their visualization (cartography) as well as web mapping technologies. Chap. 6 Geographic Information Systems (GIS) (N. Bartelme) Chap. 7 Change Detection (J. Théau) Chap. 8 Geodesy (M. Becker) Chap. 9 Data Capture and Geosensor Networks (J. Skaloud, M. Cramer, N. Haala, J.-O. Wallgrün, S. Nittel, W. Kresse) Chap. 10 Geometry, Topology and Graph Theory (G. Gröger, B. George) Chap. 11 Portrayal and Cartography (P. Hardy, K. Field) Chap. 12 Geospatial Metadata (D. Danko) Chap. 13 Standards for Geographic Information (W. Kresse, D. Danko, K. Fadaie) Chap. 14 Web Mapping and Web Cartography (A. Neumann) Chap. 15 Geospatial Semantic Web (J. Brodeur) Chap. 16 Registration of Geospatial Information Elements (C.D. O'Brien, R. Lott) Chap. 17 Security for Geospatial Information Systems (A. Matheus)
Part C Applications
Part C presents a selection of typical and important applications of geographic information. Some of the chapters address applications which may be considered as a specialization of geographic information, such as cadastre. In most of the other cases, geographic information systems (GIS) are only a tool for managing spatiotemporal data, as in planning, defense, and geology. The chapters open up a vast number of new applications, such as the
chapter on location-based services. Another approach is open-source GIS, which is a license-oriented perspective on GIS and has become a lifestyle or philosophy among information technology (IT) people. Chap. 18 Ubiquitous Geographic Information (T.J. Kim, S.-G. Jang) Chap. 19 Legal, Law, Cadastre (M. Seifert) Chap. 20 Spatial Planning (F. Wilke) Chap. 21 Location Based Services (A. Zipf, M. Jöst) Chap. 22 Movement Analysis (J. Gudmundsson, P. Laube, T. Wolle) Chap. 23 Marine GIS (M. Jonas, L. Vetter, W. Schröder, R. Pesch) Chap. 24 GIS in Agriculture (R. Bill, E. Nash, G. Grenzdörffer) Chap. 25 GIS in Defense (G. Joos) Chap. 26 GIS for Transportation (K. Choi, T.J. Kim) Chap. 27 GIS in Geology (K. Asch, S.J. Mathers, H. Kessler) Chap. 28 GIS for Energy and Utilities (W. (Bill) Meehan, J. Wyland) Chap. 29 GIS in Health and Human Services (W. (Bill) Davenhall, C. Kinabrew) Chap. 30 Open Source GIS (R.R. Vatsavai, T.E. Burk, S. Lime, M. Hugentobler, A. Neumann, C. Strobl) Chap. 31 Open Source Tools for Environmental Modeling (A. Jolma, D.P. Ames, N. Horning, H. Mitasova, M. Neteler, A. Racicot, T. Sutton) Glossary of ISO Terms.- Acknowledgements.- About the Authors.- Subject Index

Trykt eller digital bog?

Ud over trykte bøger tilbyder vi tre forskellige typer af digitale bøger:

 

Vital Source Bookshelf: En velfungerende ebogsplatform, hvor bogen downloades til din computer og/eller mobile enhed.

 

Du skal bruge den gratis Bookshelf software til at læse læse bøgerne - der er indbygget gode værktøjer til f.eks. søgning, overstregning, notetagning mv. I langt de fleste tilfælde vil du samtidig have en sideløbende 1825 dages online adgang. Læs mere om Vital Source bøger

 

Levering: I forbindelse med købet opretter du et login. Når du har installeret Bookshelf softwaren, logger du blot ind og din bog downloades automatisk.

 

 

Adobe ebog: Dette er Adobe DRM ebøger som downloades til din lokale computer eller mobil enhed.

 

For at læse bøgerne kræves særlig software, som understøtter denne type. Softwaren er gratis, men du bør sikre at du har rettigheder til installere software på den maskine du påtænker at anvende den på. Læs mere om Adobe DRM bøger

 

Levering: Et download link sendes pr email umiddelbart efter købet.

 


Ibog: Dette er en online bog som kan læses på udgiverens website. 

Der kræves ikke særlig software, bogen læses i en almindelig browser.

 

Levering: Vores medarbejder sender dig en adgangsnøgle pr email.

 

Vi gør opmærksom på at der ikke er retur/fortrydelsesret på digitale varer.
