The book contains private views of experts from various
countries on the role of geological mapping in sustainable
development. New technologies and concepts are presented, which are
either awaiting for recognition by Geological Surveys, or are
gradually applied in some survey. The target of the book is well
worded in the "Summary and recommendations" elaborated by the Ad
Hoc Committee at the Advanced Research Workshop on Innovative
Geological Cartography, held under NATO sponsorship in Poland in
November 2003. After the "Summaries" were issued by the end of
2003, the authors who presented their views at the Workshop, gave a
revised version of their papers with more new ideas and material.
Generally, the book is addressed to cartographers in Geological
Surveys, geologists and geographers co-operating with landuse
planners, ecologists and decision makers, who may learn about the
state-of-the-art and the enormous information potential of the
modern information technologies in Geosciences. The book, however,
gives no methodological recipes but, as it was the authors'
intention, may and shall be used as a guide-book in modernizing
Information Technologies at the local, regional and national levels
in Geosciences.
