Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Geodata Infrastructures (GDI) are on everyone's lips. GIS are information systems for collecting, editing, organizing, analyzing and presenting geographic data, including the hardware, software, data, and applications required for this purpose.
The understandably written textbook not only conveys the necessary theoretical-conceptual basic knowledge of GIS, but also addresses the latest developments in the field of geodata infrastructures, WebGIS and newer "Digital Earth initiatives" such as "Google Earth" or "OpenStreetMap". In addition, the textbook takes up the importance of the European INSPIRE Directive, which shapes the entire information system in the Europe of the future.
Central contents of the book are:
• Geo Information Systems Fundamentals,
• Data sources, storage, management and analysis,
• Geodata Infrastructures (GDI),
• INSPIRE,
• WebGIS - GIS and Internet,
• Earth observation and GIS,
• Digital Earth initiatives and future developments.
With this broad approach, the volume is aimed at students and lecturers of both geography and other subjects with "spatial reference" - and last but not least at practitioners who want to learn quickly and thoroughly about this interdisciplinary tool.
