La revue La Géographie – Terre des Hommes est l’héritière de l’une des plus anciennes revues savantes françaises, le Bulletin de la Société de Géographie, publiée sans discontinuité depuis 1822 par la Société de Géographie, elle-même la plus ancienne des sociétés de géographie au monde. C’est ainsi que la revue a dépassé son 1580e numéro en 2021. Quatre numéros thématiques sortent chaque année, dont un consacré au thème retenu pour le Festival International de Géographie de Saint-Dié-des-Vosges. Revue de langue française, elle a dorénavant pour vocation d’être une vitrine à la fois accessible et attrayante de la recherche en géographie, y compris pour des sujets originaux ou peu explorés, et de faire le lien entre le grand public et les chercheurs, à travers des dossiers richement illustrés, qui permettent de découvrir les champs variés d’une discipline qui a su profondément se renouveler au contact d’un monde en constante évolution.

The objective of spatial analysis techniques is to describe the patterns existing in spatial data and to establish, preferably quantitatively, the relationships between different geographic variables. The notion of spatial analysis in a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) environment encompasses the idea of integrating spatial data and alphanumeric attributes and translating it into a series of functions related to selection and data search, on the one hand, and with modeling, on the other. There have been substantial advances in spatial analysis techniques in GIS, mainly in the form of more faithfully apprehending the relationships inherent to the geographic phenomenon, something that was proven impossible to do with non-spatial techniques. Nowadays, spatial analysis involves a set of techniques used to analyze and model variables with distribution in space and/or time. The new era of spatial analysis must also consider the possibilities of integrating artificial intelligence in simulation (geosimulation) processes in computerized environments (geocomputation) in close relationship with models developed in real situations. GIS have emerged as useful tools in geographic modeling processes, helping to answer questions about the time variability of the landscape structure, study the behavior of fire, predict areas of urban expansion, analyze propagation phenomena, model animal movement and behavior, and determine periods and areas of high risk of flooding, among other phenomena. GIS and Spatial Analysis is a critical book that provides different methodologies that combine the potential data (including Big Data) analysis with GIS applications. It gives readers a comprehensive overview of the current state-of-the-art methods of spatial analysis, focusing both on the new philosophical and theoretical foundations for spatial analysis and on a flexible framework for analysis in the real world, for problems such as complexity and uncertainty.

Title in English: Moravian Karst and its Environs: Atlas for field work and outdoor activities. The atlas The Moravian Karst and its Environs includes an area which is used for outdoor activities by a number of schools not only from the Czech Republic, of all types and grades. The needs of fieldwork in the frame of teacher education at PdF MU were taken into consideration. The mission of the Atlas is to raise the desire to learn something new about processes which shaped and still shape the landscape of the Moravian Karst and its environs. The Atlas itself is composed of two parts. The first part is formed of thematically oriented maps with a scale of 1 : 160,000 and 1 : 400,000. It contains an overall overview of the chosen area and a description of its basic natural and cultural characteristics. The second part comprises detailed maps with a 1 : 20,000 scale which contain a huge amount of additional information. Its main goal is to support its users in their exploration of areas they choose from maps and thus help them to explore points of interest which are depicted by cartographic symbols.
