Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les systèmes d'information géographique (SIG) caractérisent à la fois un modèle numérisé de l'espace géographique, mais aussi l'ensemble des outils de traitement de l'information associés. Combinant informations géographiques et statistiques, ils permettent un suivi cartographié et quantifié des dynamiques territoriales. La plupart des collectivités publiques ont aujourd'hui achevé l'acquisition et la structuration de ce type de données. Les bases résultantes sont mises à disposition du public et des praticiens, mais la richesse et la diversité des informations qu'elles proposent rendent leur exploitation complexe, dans la mesure où elles requièrent des connaissances développées en analyse spatiale. Cet ouvrage se propose de procurer au lecteur l'ensemble des outils nécessaires à la maîtrise et à l'exploitation de ces méthodes, notamment dans le cadre de la géostatistique appliquée aux phénomènes discrets et continus, de l'analyse du relief, de la formulation de requêtes spatiales, des aptitudes des réseaux (accessibilité et zones d'influence) et des objets zonaux (analyse multivariée associée à l'aide à la décision), de la dynamique spatiale ou de la propagation des incertitudes. Manuel sans équivalent, couvrant l'ensemble du domaine de l'exploitation des informations spatiales et de leur analyse dans une perspective d'aide à la décision. Très pédagogique : trois niveaux de lecture (bases, compréhension scientifique des phénomènes, méthodes opérationnelles), nombreuses questions de révision et suggestions de lecture en fin de chaque chapitre. Clair et didactique, cet ouvrage s'adresse à un large public d'étudiants en géosciences et en sciences de l'environnement, mais aussi de géographes et d'ingénieurs praticiens à la recherche d'un ouvrage de référence.

Download or read book Geographical Information Systems in Hydrology written by V.P. Singh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last few years have witnessed an enormous interest in application of GIS in hydrology and water resources. This is partly evidenced by organization of sev eral national and international symposia or conferences under the sponsorship of various professional organizations. This increased interest is, in a large measure, in response to growing public sensitivity to environmental quality and management. The GIS technology has the ability to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, and visualize the diverse sets of geo-referenced data. On the other hand, hydrology is inherently spatial and distributed hydrologic models have large data requirements. The integration of hydrology and GIS is therefore quite natural. The integration involves three major components: (1) spatial data construction, (2) integration of spatial model layers, and (3) GIS and model interface. GIS can assist in design, calibration, modification and comparison of models. This integration is spreading worldwide and is expected to accelerate in the foreseeable future. Substantial op portunities exist in integration of GIS and hydrology. We believe there are enough challenges in use of GIS for conceptualizing and modeling complex hydrologic processes and for globalization of hydrology. The motivation for this book grew out of the desire to provide under one cover a range of applications of GIS tech nology in hydrology. It is hoped that the book will stimulate others to write more comprehensive texts on this subject of growing importance.

Cognitive aspects are treated in relation to individual, group, behavioral, institutional, and cultural perspectives. Extensions of GIS in the form of spatial decision support systems and SDSS for groups are part of the geographic information technology considered. Audience: Geographic information users, systems analysts and system designers, researchers in human-computer interaction will find this book an information resource for understanding cognitive aspects of geographic information technology use, and the methods appropriate for examining this use.

This book was released on 2012-06-07 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un défi majeur pour l'homme est de se munir de représentations de l'espace dans lequel il vit qui dépassent la représentation que lui-même peut s'en construire afin d'agir en étant mieux informé. Ces représentations doivent être partageables afin que les décisions bénéficient d'une variété de points de vue. Alors que les cartes deviennent numériques et que leur analyse peut être partagée entre l'homme et l'ordinateur, demeurent des défis concernant la représentation des données numériques sur l'espace, l'acquisition et le traitement de ces données. Cet ouvrage présente des développements logiciels majeurs produits récemment en géomatique, discipline à la croisée de la géographie et de l'informatique et qui se concentre sur l'acquisition et le traitement des données sur l'espace. Il analyse les spécificités de ces logiciels en termes de motivations, de modélisation de l'information et de méthodes d'analyse. Les verrous associés à leur mutualisation sont également analysés et conduisent à des propositions pour une meilleure mutualisation des efforts de recherche et de développement en géomatique.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avec la massification des données et la systématisation du référencement géographique de l’information, les cartes constituent aujourd’hui des enjeux importants, tant pour les spécialistes que pour les organismes d’aménagement, d’urbanisme ou le grand public. Cependant, si produire une carte peut paraître facile, le passage concret des données à une carte utile pour la question posée est jalonné par une succession d’opérations précises mobilisant des connaissances en divers domaines : statistique, géographie, cartographie, etc. Traitements et cartographie de l’information géographique présente une diversité d’enchaînements d’opérations à partir d’exemples variés. Chaque chapitre emprunte un chemin différent, explicitant les choix méthodologiques opérés en fonction du thème traité et du but poursuivi. Cette approche couvrant l’ensemble de la démarche de production d’une carte permettra à tout lecteur, qu’il soit étudiant, chercheur, enseignant ou aménagiste de comprendre les multiples rôles que la carte peut jouer dans des analyses de données géographiques.

Download or read book Handling and Mapping Geographic Information written by Claire Cunty and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-10-29 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the increasing proliferation of data and the systematization of geographic information referencing, maps are now a major concern – not only for specialists, but also for urban planning and development organizations and the general public. However, while producing a map may seem straightforward, the actual process of transforming data into a useful map with a specific purpose is characterized by a series of precise operations that require knowledge in a variety of fields: statistics, geography, cartography and so on. Handling and Mapping Geographic Information presents a wide range of operations based on a variety of examples. Each chapter adopts a different approach, explaining the methodological choices made in relation to the theme and the pursued objective. This approach, encompassing the entire map production process, will enable all readers, whether students, researchers, teachers or planners, to understand the multiple roles that maps can play in the analysis of geographical data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of regions in the European Union has been frequently debated since the 1980s. This comprehensive book provides a thorough overview of the issue from a variety of perspectives, analysing regional governance and territorial dynamics in the EU and its member states. Focusing on the implications of the democratisation–regionalisation nexus, it argues that a ‘Europe with the regions’ may promote good governance and ameliorate the democratic deficits of the EU.
