Figure 20: Sample (a) region, (b) its binary array, (c) its maximal blocks, and (d) the corresponding quadtree (after SAMET 1990a). IX he first textbook on GIS was published in 1986. Today, we can find dozens of books dealing with GIS. Yet, it is dif...
متن کاملOntological Foundations for Geographic Information Science
1. Introduction The ontology of geospatial phenomena is a critical emerging research theme in geographic information science. Recently, the notion and concept of ontology has gained increased attention among researchers in geographic information science, and UCGIS should recognize its important contribution to a fundamental theory of geographic information science. The growth of interest in the...
متن کاملStatistical Perspectives on Geographic Information Science
Statistical geometry applies probabilistic methods to geometric forms. In the early days of the quantitative revolution statistical geometry appeared to provide a useful framework for geographic research, but its value appeared to decline in the 1970s and 1980s. Geographic information science addresses the fundamental issues underlying the geographic information technologies, and statistical ge...
متن کاملLeveraging the Science of Geographic Information Systems
The Center for Geographic Information Science (CGISc) at the University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG) was established in the Summer of 2006. CGISc is an educational research entity that relies on the use of GIS and the science of geographic information to conduct research on human and natural phenomena distributed on the Earth’s surface. CGISc welcomes interdisciplinary collaboration, and...
متن کاملGeographic Information Observatories for Supporting Science
In this paper we explore two questions that we feel are important to investigate further if geographic information observatories are to be fruitful research endeavor in GIScience. The first question is simply ‘what is a geographic information observatory (and what is it not)?’ and the second question is ‘what use is a geographic information observatory?’. The construction of large-scale geograp...
