Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study and application of spatial information systems have been developed primarily from the use of computers in the geosciences. These systems have the principle functions of capturing, storing, representing, manipulating, and displaying data in 2-D and 3-D worlds. This book approaches its subject from the perspectives of informatics and geography, presenting methods of conceptual modeling developed in computer science that provide valuable aids for resolving spatial problems. This book is an essential textbook for both students and practitioners. It is indispensable for academic geographers, computer scientists, and the GIS professional. Serves as the first comprehensive textbook on the field of Spatial Information Systems (also known as Geographic Information Systems) Contains extensive illustrations Presents numerous detailed examples

Book excerpt: This book is intended to be a basic-level textbook for the beginners and a reference book for GIS practitioners who use the system for their professional work. It tries to integrate the idea that GIS is for all. The book starts with the introduction of GIS and its various components and functionalities and goes on to cover map projection systems, different data models and data input, spatial analysis, and surface modeling aspects of GIS. Various data output and the integration of GIS with as a tool. It also contains a complete Glossary of terms and the abbreviations and acronyms frequently used in GIS.The book offers a step-by-step appreciation of Geographical Information Sciences as a discipline and Geographic Information System as a tool to understand the real world, to the one who strives to change the world in a better and more meaningful way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographical data are used in so many aspects of our lives today, from disaster relief operations to finding directions on our cellphones. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) are the software tools that turn raw data into useful information that can help us understand our world better.Principles of Geographical Information Systems presents a strong theoretical basis for GIS-often lacking in other texts-and an account of its practice. Through real-world examples, this text clearly explains the importance of spatial data and the information systems based upon them in solving arange of practical problems.
