Globally, concerns for the environment and human well-being have
increased as results of threats imposed by climate change and
disasters, environmental degradation, pollution of natural
resources, water scarcity and proliferation of slums. Finding
appropriate solutions to these threats and challenges is not
simple, as these are generally complex and require state-of-the-art
technology to collect, measure, handle and analyse large volumes of
varying data sets. However, the recent advances in sensor
technology, coupled with the rapid development of computational
power, have greatly enhanced our abilities to capture, store and
analyse the surrounding physical environment. This book explores
diverse dimensions of geo-intelligence (GI) technology in
developing a computing framework for location-based,
data-integrating earth observation and predictive modelling to
address these issues at all levels and scales. The book provides
insight into the applications of GI technology in several fields of
spatial and social sciences and attempts to bridge the gap between
them.
