Beschreibung
As geography's 'big ideas'--such as space, place, boundaries, scale, process, and relationality--have evolved, what does this mean for their computational representation? This book considers how key concepts have developed in geography and are represented (or not) in GISc, with a view to bridging gaps between the two.

Über den Autor
David O'Sullivan, PhD, is an independent scholar who has held positions at Te Herenga Waka--Victoria University of Wellington; the University of California, Berkeley; the University of Auckland; and Penn State. He has published extensively on novel approaches to the simulation of change in urban and ecological systems, and the implications of different representations in giscience in relation to wider currents in geographical thought.
