Map-based Mobile Services: Design, Interaction and Usability (Lecture Notes in Geoinformation and Cartography)

Springer, 2008

The worldwide popularisation of mobile communication technologies and the increasing awareness of usability issues since 1990’s have been urging map designers to specialise and extend cartographic semiotics, visualisation styles and map use techniques for mobile contexts and small display devices. As a follow-up to the first book...

Dynamic and Mobile GIS: Investigating Changes in Space and Time (Innovations in Gis)

CRC Press, 2006

Like Stan Openshaw (1998) in the foreword to the ‘Innovations in GIS 5’, I have never been asked to write a foreword before, and also like him I am concerned that after you read this one (and who reads forewords anyway?) I may never be invited again. But, as readers of this foreword will be probably be sparse and perhaps limited to the...

Collaborative Geographic Information Systems

Idea Group Publishing, 2006

Many advances in the integration of group spatial modeling, geographic information systems (GIS), and the Internet have occurred in recent years; however, there is a lack of materials to highlight the transdisciplinary characteristics and impacts of this convergence while providing a uniform and consistent treatment of this expanding field of...

GIS, Environmental Modeling and Engineering, Second Edition

CRC Press, 2009

Spatial dimensions need to be properly captured if modeling and engineering techniques are to be successfully applied in addressing environmental problems. The links between the geographical information systems (GIS) that capture this data, simulation modeling, and engineering offer tremendous possibilities for building versatile support...
