Economists, geographers and surveyors are beginning to recognise the powerful tool which a Geographical Information System (GIS) offers in effective property management. It provides a means of managing land and property information digitally and in a geographical context, and allows for rapid access to information and a means of analysing that information in a geographical context. GIS in Land and Property Management shows how to use GIS, both in principle and in practice. It introduces digital mapping and GIS, along with a brief history of the development of GIS and LIS, all with an emphasis on property. In presenting the spectrum of GIS applications in property management it gives a number of case studies from a variety of market sectors, and it analyses the issues to provide guidance and a number of recommendations for the implementation of GIS. At the same time common themes and issues are drawn out to present a coherent message for students and practitioners. The book is useful for undergraduate and postgraduate students on land management, built environment, economics and geography courses, and for property professionals, in both public and private sectors, looking to GIS as a property management decision aid.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 1996 im Fachbereich BWL - Personal und
Organisation, Note: 1, Technische Universitat Darmstadt (I Rechts-
und Wirtschaftswissenschaften, BWL III), Veranstaltung: Dr.-Ing. R.
Helbig, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Inhaltsangabe: Problemstellung:
Die Einfuhrung von Gruppenarbeit in bisher tayloristisch gepragten
Produktions- und Fertigungsbereichen hat in den letzten Jahren die
okonomische Uberlegenheit dieses mitarbeiterbezogenen alternativen
Arbeitsorganisationskonzepts deutlich gemacht. Die motivationalen
und psychologischen Starken von Gruppenarbeit als Personalkonzept
werden zur Zeit intensiv in der Literatur diskutiert. Einige
Autoren versuchen dabei den auf den Produktionsbereich fokussierten
Blickwinkel auf andere Bereiche der Unternehmen und andere Branchen
zu erweitern und bereits gewonnene Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse auf
den Buro- und Verwaltungsbereich bzw. den Dienstleistungssektor zu
ubertragen. Meistens wird allerdings nur ein Teilaspekt der
Umsetzungsproblematik von Gruppenarbeit in diesen typischen
Angestelltenbereichen betrachtet, eine zusammenhangende oder
vollstandige Darstellung fehlt. Ziel dieser Studienarbeit soll
deshalb sein, diese Thematik unter arbeitswissenschaftlichen
Gesichtspunkten zu analysieren um Wissenschaft und Praxis einen
moglichst umfassenden Einblick in die mit der Einfuhrung von
Gruppenarbeit im Angestelltenbereich verbundenen Probleme und
Schwierigkeiten zu geben und Losungsmoglichkeiten aufzuzeigen. Nach
einem einleitenden Vorwort werden in Kapitel 2 die historischen
Grundlagen fur die weitere Beschaftigung mit dem Thema erarbeitet.
Zunachst zeigt der Verfasser den allgemeinen Wandel der
Arbeitsorganisationskonzepte von arbeitsteiligen zu
teamorientierten Prinzipien auf, um eine detailliertere Betrachtung
von typischen Burobereichen anzuschliessen. Den Schwerpunkt dieses
Kapitels bildet die Untersuchung der historischen Entwicklung der
Angestellten, die einen bis heute spurbaren und wirksamen Mentalit
Between May 5 and June 3, 1864, the Union and Confederate armies
suffered 88,000 casualties. Twenty-nine thousand were killed,
wounded or captured in the first two days of combat. The savagery
shocked a young, divided nation.
Against this backdrop of the birth of modern warfare and the
painful rebirth of the United States, "New York Times" bestselling
novelist Ralph Peters has created a breathtaking narrative that
surpasses the drama and intensity of his recent critically
acclaimed novel, "Cain at Gettysburg."
In "Hell or Richmond," thirty days of ceaseless carnage are seen
through the eyes of a compelling cast, from the Union's
Harvard-valedictorian "boy general," Francis Channing Barlow, to
the brawling "dirty boots" Rebel colonel, William C. Oates. From
Ulysses S. Grant and Robert E. Lee to a simple laborer destined to
win the Medal of Honor, Peters brings to life an enthralling array
of leaders and simple soldiers from both North and South, fleshing
out history with stunning, knowledgeable realism.
From the horrific collision of armies in the Wilderness, where
neither side wanted to fight, to the shocking slaughter of the
grand charge at Cold Harbor, this epic novel delivers a compelling,
authentic, and suspenseful portrait of Civil War combat.
Commemorating the approaching 150th anniversary of this grim
encounter between valiant Americans, Ralph Peters brings to bear
the lessons of his own military career, his lifelong study of this
war and the men who fought it, and his skills as a bestselling,
prize-winning novelist to portray horrific battles and sublime
heroism as no other author has done.
Winner of the American Library Association's W. Y. Boyd Award
for Excellence in Military Fiction
Two mighty armies blunder toward each other, one led by confident,
beloved Robert E. Lee and the other by dour George Meade. They'll
meet in a Pennsylvania crossroads town where no one planned to
fight.
In this sweeping, savagely realistic novel, the greatest battle
ever fought on American soil explodes into life at Gettysburg. As
generals squabble, staffs err. Tragedy unfolds for immigrants in
blue and barefoot Rebels alike. The fate of our nation will be
decided in a few square miles of fields.
Following a tough Confederate sergeant from the Blue Ridge, a
bitter Irish survivor of the Great Famine, a German political
refugee, and gun crews in blue and gray, "Cain at Gettysburg" is as
grand in scale as its depictions of combat are unflinching.
For three days, battle rages. Through it all, James Longstreet
is haunted by a vision of war that leads to a fateful feud with
Robert E. Lee. Scheming Dan Sickles nearly destroys his own army.
Gallant John Reynolds and obstreperous Win Hancock, fiery William
Barksdale and dashing James Johnston Pettigrew, gallop toward their
fates....
There are no marble statues on this battlefield, only men of
flesh and blood, imperfect and courageous. From "New York Times"
bestselling author and former U.S. Army officer Ralph Peters, "Cain
at Gettysburg" is bound to become a classic of men at war.
