Historical GIS is an emerging field that uses Geographical
Information Systems (GIS) to research the geographies of the past.
Ian Gregory and Paul Ell present the first study comprehensively to
define this emerging field, exploring all aspects of using GIS in
historical research. A GIS is a form of database in which every
item of data is linked to a spatial location. This technology
offers unparalleled opportunities to add insight and rejuvenate
historical research through the ability to identify and use the
geographical characteristics of data. Historical GIS introduces the
basic concepts and tools underpinning GIS technology, describing
and critically assessing the visualisation, analytical and
e-Science methodologies that it enables and examining key
scholarship where GIS has been used to enhance research debates.
The result is a clear agenda charting how GIS will develop as one
of the most important approaches to scholarship in historical
geography.
