Abstract. Geographical Information Science is essentially computational geography and has its own research program, namely all aspects of formal models for spatial natural processe...
Spatial analysis mostly developed in an era when data was scarce and computational power was expensive. Consequently, traditional spatial analysis greatly simpli
Abstract. Suppose that geographic data under investigation are rates associated with polygons. For example, disease incidence, mortality, and census undercount data may be displaye...
The success of GIS has in some ways proved to be a mixed blessing to academic geography. While quantitative geography has developed as a disciplinary specialism over a long period ...
This paper is concerned with the intersection of GIS and spatial analysis, its accessibility for scientists who may be less methodologically oriented than others, and its use in su...
GIS and spatial analysis is suited mainly for static pictures of the landscape, but many of the processes that need exploring are dynamic in nature. Dynamic processes can be comple...
Abstract: Some ideas are formulated on the challenges presented to GIS, spatial analysis and spatial econometrics that result from recent trends in social science research. These n...
