Book excerpt: Following the attacks of September 11, 2001, many agencies within the federal government began restricting some of their publicly available geospatial data and information from such sources as the World Wide Web. As time passes, however, decisionmakers have begun to ask whether and how such information specifically helps potential attackers, including terrorists, to select U.S. homeland sites and prepare for better attacks. The research detailed in this book aims to assist decisionmakers tasked with the responsibility of choosing which geospatial information to make available and which to restrict.

Book excerpt: Over time, GIS (geographic information systems) have risen in utility and prominence in the field of homeland security as well as many associated fields including emergency management, criminal justice, intelligence, public administration, and public health. This book serves the need as a text for homeland security GIS courses as well as a guide for employed homeland security professionals who need to apply GIS to multiple domains and varied threat landscapes. The book presents a practical lessons format organized around the all-hazards (natural, accidental, and intentional) threat landscape and builds on the most recent Department of Homeland Security policy guidance, i.e. the Resilience Agenda. The general structure of the book reviews a form of hazard, outlines specific homeland security policies and operations associated with the hazard, and instruct how to use GIS for a particular homeland security application. Included in the book are labs in which GIS is used to address scenarios from an all-hazards framework showing how to use GIS in different phases of homeland security operations, such as planning and response. Operations are framed based on the hazard, and GIS is used in labs to achieve operational goals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interdisciplinary uses of traditional cartographic resources and modern GIS tools allow for the analysis and discovery of information across a wide spectrum of fields. A Research Guide to Cartographic Resources navigates the numerous American and Canadian cartographic resources available in print and online, offering researchers, academics and students with information on how to locate and access the large variety of resources, new and old. Dozens of different cartographic materials are highlighted and summarized, along with lists of map libraries and geospatial centers, and related professional associations. A Research Guide to Cartographic Resources consists of 18 chapters, two appendices, and a detailed index that includes place names, and libraries, structured in a manner consistent with most reference guides, including cartographic categories such as atlases, dictionaries, gazetteers, handbooks, maps, plans, GIS data and other related material. Almost all of the resources listed in this guide are categorized by geography down to the county level, making efficient work of the type of material required to meet the information needs of those interested in researching place-specific cartographic-related resources. Additionally, this guide will help those interested in not only developing a comprehensive collection in these subject areas, but get an understanding of what materials are being collected and housed in specific map libraries, geospatial centers and their related websites. Of particular value are the sections that offer directories of cartographic and GIS libraries, as well as comprehensive lists of geospatial datasets down to the county level. This volume combines the traditional and historical collections of cartography with the modern applications of GIS-based maps and geospatial datasets.
