In terms of statistics, GIS offers many connections. With GIS, data
are gathered, displayed, summarized, examined, and interpreted to
discover patterns. Spatial Mathematics: Theory and Practice through
Mapping uses GIS as a platform to teach mathematical concepts and
skills through visualization of numbers. It examines theory and
practice from disparate academic disciplines such as geography,
mathematics, physics, and general social science. This approach
allows students to grapple with biodiversity, crime, natural
hazards, climate, energy, water, and other relevant real-world
issues of the twenty-first century. Includes QR Codes Linked to
Animated Maps, a Mapping Activity Site, or to an Interactive
Webpage, Creating an Interactive Resource That Stays Relevant The
book integrates competing philosophical views of the world:
synthesis and analysis. These two approaches yield different
results and employ different tools. This book considers both
approaches to looking at real-world issues that have mathematics as
a critical, but often unseen, component. This approach shows
readers how to use mathematics to consider the broad problem at
hand and to explore diverse realms in the worlds of geography and
mathematics and in their interface. A truly interdisciplinary text,
the book bridges the worlds of mathematics and geography and
demonstrates how they are inextricably linked. It takes advantage
of the convergence in citizen science, STEM education, and mapping
that help readers become critical consumers of data-understanding
its content, quality, limitations, and benefits. It provides
thorough grounding in the analytical, statistical, and
computational skills required for working in any field that uses
geospatial technologies-not just surveyors and remote sensing
analysts.
