A concise text presenting the fundamental concepts in Geographical
Information Systems (GIS), emphasising an understanding of
techniques in management, analysis and graphic display of spatial
information. Divided into five parts - the first part reviews the
development and application of GIS, followed by a summary of the
characteristics and representation of geographical information. It
concludes with an overview of the functions provided by typical GIS
systems. Part Two introduces co-ordinate systems and map
projections, describes methods for digitising map data and gives an
overview of remote sensing. Part Three deals with data storage and
database management, as well as specialised techniques for
accessing spatial data. Spatial modelling and analytical techniques
for decision making form the subject of Part Four, while the final
part is concerned with graphical representation, emphasising issues
of graphics technology, cartographic design and map generalisation.
