Von der hinteren Coverseite

Spatial Information Systems have involved primarily from the use of computers in the geosciences, and their principal function is the handling of 2-D and 3-D information. This textbook brings together geoscience and computing in the spirit of 'geomatics' combining space-
oriented and information-oriented disciplines. It has been written as a comprehensive introductory text for students of geography and computer science, and as a sourcebook for professionals in Geographical Information System.
