"Given the extensive developments that have taken place in cartography and GIS in the last decade, the fourth edition of a well-established book in cartography explores the continued evolution of the Internet and Web 2.0. A new chapter on Geovisual Analytics captures the analysis and visualization of Big Data, while a new chapter on Cartography, Technology, and Society reviews the critical and ethical issues involved with collecting, using, and storing digital data; the importance of participatory cartography; and web-based geospatial data sources. Thoroughly revised, this book equips educators and benefit students with the most valuable up-to-date learning resource available in the cartographic field"--

Manual of Geospatial Science and Technology shows how to work across the range of geospatial science and technology, whether as a user or as a contractor of services employing these technologies, and without either specialist education or substantial experience. The manual covers the fundamentals, providing the requisite mathematics, computer science and physics necessary to understand how the technologies work, assuming some elementary background in calculus and physics. It also shows how the technologies can be used together and focuses on their commonalities. A number of applications such as mapping and environmental modeling are presented, and a website accompanies the book. Contents Part I Prerequisites 1. Geospatial Science 2.

This book is the first contemporary book to compare and integrate the various ways geographers think about and use scale across the spectrum of the discipline and includes state-of-the-art contributions by authoritative human geographers, physical geographers and GIS specialists. Provides a state of the art survey of how geographers think about scale. Brings together recent interest in scale in human and physical geography, as well as geographic information science Places competing concepts of scale side by side in order to compare them. The introduction
Geography --- Multidimensional scaling. --- Geographical perception. --- Mathematics.
