Geospatial technologies in general - and Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) in particular - are becoming increasingly important
in our society. GIS technology is used to identify the optimal
routes for emergency vehicles, to determine the best locations for
various businesses, schools, and facilities, to monitor the growth
and expansion of urban areas as a way to manage natural resources,
and much more. Principles of Geographic Information Systems by John
Jensen and Ryan Jensen is an ideal introduction for those who know
very little about geographic information systems and spatial
analysis. Relatively complex GIS principles are introduced in basic
terms, often using graphics to communicate principles rather than
complex mathematical equations. Content is not geared toward any
single commercial GIS software program, and the book's timely,
practical examples and extensive visual format appeal to today's
students. This text can be used at the undergraduate or graduate
level in one or two semester courses in Introductory and
Intermediate GIS, yet can also be useful for professionals looking
to increase their knowledge in this subject area. Note: If you are
purchasing the standalone text or electronic version,
mygeoscienceplace does not come automatically packaged with the
text. To purchase mygeoscienceplace, please visit
