Essentials of Geographic Information Systems
This text integrates key concepts behind the technology with practical concerns and real-world applications. Recognizing that many potential GIS users are nonspecialists or may only need a few maps, this book is designed to be accessible, pragmatic, and concise. The text also illustrates how GIS is used to ask questions, inform choices, and guide policy.
