Space-time analysis is a rapidly growing research frontier in
geography, GIS, and GIScience. Advances in integrated GPS/GIS
technologies, the availability of large datasets (over time and
space), and increased capacity to manage, integrate, model and
visualize complex data in (near) real time, offer the GIS and
geography communities extraordinary opportunities to begin to
integrate sophisticated space-time analysis and models in the study
of complex environmental and social systems, from climate change to
infectious disease transmission. This volume specifically focuses
on research frontiers, comparative research, and research and
application interactions in this field in the US and China,
arguably the two most dynamic loci for this work today. The
contributions to this book, by top researchers in China and the US,
productively highlight the differences and similarities in
approaches and directions for space-time analysis in the two
countries. In light of the recent rapid progress in GIScience
research on space-time integration in both countries, the bookâs
focus on research frontiers in these two countries will attract
great interest in both countries and in other parts of the world as
well as among related disciplines. In addition, the book also
explores the impact of collaborative research and publications
underway in this area between the US and China and will provide an
overview of these collaborative efforts and programs. This book
will not only be of interest to university-based GIS researchers
and students, but also to those interested in this new area of
research and applications like researchers and developers in
business, internet mapping and GIS and location based services
(LBS).
