An Illustrated Dictionary of GIS

Tasha Wade/Shelly Sommer
ISBN: 1-58948-140-2 2006
288 páginas
A to Z GIS

Geographic information systems (GIS) are now everywhere; the technology has become embedded in our society. GIS is a tool for everything from saving endangered wildlife to exploring distant planets. As GIS has evolved and grown, so has the language of this powerful technology. A to Z GIS presents the most comprehensive collection of GIS terms and illustrations to help students, educators, and professionals understand and use the special language of GIS in research, field studies, and real-world applications.


Understanding Place
Technology seems always on the verge of revolutionizing education. In the 1940’s people envisioned television would replace teachers. In the 1960’s we thought “programmed instruction” would guarantee learning. The 1980’s brought personal computers, games, and simulations. In the 1990’s it was the Internet.

GIS mapping software is not the educational revolution of the 21st century, but it is a powerful tool for teaching and learning. Each case study in this volume describes how an experienced instructor has used GIS in the service of his or her own teaching, within the traditions of a classical undergraduate education. Authors describe how they integrated mapping software into their syllabi, pursuing the learning goals of their discipline, striving to create a realistic learning environment in which students practice inquiry in their field. Chapters span the natural sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities.

Mapping Global Cities
Spatial thinking and analysis are essential for intelligent urban policymaking in a globally connected world. Urban planners need to understand how cities are organized and how residential patterns are shaped as a result of population and employment changes. Otherwise, they risk designing urban plans and policies that are unrealistic and exclusionary. Geographic information systems (GIS) can be usefully applied by planners to new urban development challenges in global metropolitan regions and megacities, particularly those where rapid demographic changes, including immigration, have spurred massive growth.
