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.

Download or read book The History of Cartography Volume 6 written by Mark Monmonier and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-05-18 with total page 1941 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than thirty years, the History of Cartography Project has charted the course for scholarship on cartography, bringing together research from a variety of disciplines on the creation, dissemination, and use of maps. Volume 6, Cartography in the Twentieth Century, continues this tradition with a groundbreaking survey of the century just ended and a new full-color, encyclopedic format. The twentieth century is a pivotal period in map history. The transition from paper to digital formats led to previously unimaginable dynamic and interactive maps. Geographic information systems radically altered cartographic institutions and reduced the skill required to create maps. Satellite positioning and mobile communications revolutionized wayfinding. Mapping evolved as an important tool for coping with complexity, organizing knowledge, and influencing public opinion in all parts of the globe and at all levels of society. Volume 6 covers these changes comprehensively, while thoroughly demonstrating the far-reaching effects of maps on science, technology, and society—and vice versa. The lavishly produced volume includes more than five hundred articles accompanied by more than a thousand images. Hundreds of expert contributors provide both original research, often based on their own participation in the developments they describe, and interpretations of larger trends in cartography. Designed for use by both scholars and the general public, this definitive volume is a reference work of first resort for all who study and love maps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Internship Report from the year 2011 in the subject Engineering - General, Bangladesh Space Research and Remote Sensing Organization, language: English, abstract: Remote sensing is the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon, without making physical contact with the object. It primarily concerned with deriving information about the earth’s surface using an elevated platform. History of RS is not so old. It started from manual aerial photo capturing and interpretation and now running with modern satellite image capturing. A Remote sensing system comprises all the available components (both hard and soft wares), the online server, their interactions and interrelations in doing a particular job like image processing from satellite data. RSS comprises Platforms, Sensor, Computer system, Server, Institutional setups, Energy source and finally Image interpretation. Energy interactions with the atmosphere dictate the spectral regions through which only we can do the remote sensing which are known as spectral windows. The total incident energy will interact with earth’s surface materials in three ways. These are: Absorption, Transmission, and Reflection. Radiometric and Geometric characteristics of remotely sensed images comprise Radiant energy, flux, intensity, Irradiance, emittance, Radiance, Radiometric resolution, Film exposure of sensor, Instantaneous Field Of View and Extraneous Geometric effect. Locations and other characteristics of natural features and human activities on, above and beneath the earth’s surface are recorded as information for RS. The raster (or grid-cell) data model has developed from aerial and satellite-imaging technology, which represents geographical objects as grid-cell structures known as pixels. The location of geographic objects or conditions is defined by the row and column position of the cells they occupy. Information available on remotely sensed images may have three modes or dimensions, i.e. spatial, temporal, or thematic. After image capturing and storing, images are manipulated and interpreted. The process of image processing are consists of Georeferencing, Classification and analysis. A remotely sensed data comprises following spectral characteristics like Bandwidth, Band placement, Number of bands etc.
