Download Interoperating Geographic Information Systems PDF Format Full Free by Michael Goodchild and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geographic information systems have developed rapidly in the past decade, and are now a major class of software, with applications that include infrastructure maintenance, resource management, agriculture, Earth science, and planning. But a lack of standards has led to a general inability for one GIS to interoperate with another. It is difficult for one GIS to share data with another, or for people trained on one system to adapt easily to the commands and user interface of another. Failure to interoperate is a problem at many levels, ranging from the purely technical to the semantic and the institutional. Interoperating Geographic Information Systems is about efforts to improve the ability of GISs to interoperate, and has been assembled through a collaboration between academic researchers and the software vendor community under the auspices of the US National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis and the Open GIS Consortium Inc. It includes chapters on the basic principles and the various conceptual frameworks that the research community has developed to think about the problem. Other chapters review a wide range of applications and the experiences of the authors in trying to achieve interoperability at a practical level. Interoperability opens enormous potential for new ways of using GIS and new mechanisms for exchanging data, and these are covered in chapters on information marketplaces, with special reference to geographic information. Institutional arrangements are also likely to be profoundly affected by the trend towards interoperable systems, and nowhere is the impact of interoperability more likely to cause fundamental change than in education, as educators address the needs of a new generation of GIS users with access to a new generation of tools. The book concludes with a series of chapters on education and institutional change. Interoperating Geographic Information Systems is suitable as a secondary text for graduate level courses in computer science, geography, spatial databases, and interoperability and as a reference for researchers and practitioners in industry, commerce and government.

Download The Current Role of Geological Mapping in Geosciences PDF Format Full Free by Stanislaw R. Ostaficzuk and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-10-04 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book contains private views of experts from various countries on the role of geological mapping in sustainable development. New technologies and concepts are presented, which are either awaiting for recognition by Geological Surveys, or are gradually applied in some survey. The target of the book is well worded in the "Summary and recommendations" elaborated by the Ad Hoc Committee at the Advanced Research Workshop on Innovative Geological Cartography, held under NATO sponsorship in Poland in November 2003. After the "Summaries" were issued by the end of 2003, the authors who presented their views at the Workshop, gave a revised version of their papers with more new ideas and material. Generally, the book is addressed to cartographers in Geological Surveys, geologists and geographers co-operating with landuse planners, ecologists and decision makers, who may learn about the state-of-the-art and the enormous information potential of the modern information technologies in Geosciences. The book, however, gives no methodological recipes but, as it was the authors' intention, may and shall be used as a guide-book in modernizing Information Technologies at the local, regional and national levels in Geosciences.

Book excerpt: Explore the capabilities--and the limitations--of CORC and the Dublin Core! The explosion of online resources has brought with it a host of new metadata schemes and cataloging projects. One of OCLC's most important projects is discussed in CORC: New Tools and Possibilities for Cooperative Electronic Resource Description. This fascinating volume on the pioneering collaborative computer system will help you enhance the value of library services and improve the productivity of librarians and library users. CORC offers a blend of theoretical and practical approaches to broad-based and specialized cataloging problems to help you take advantage of the benefits of the new cooperative cataloging of digital resources. The fourteen chapters in this book tell stories of new ideas, discoveries, and insights gained by being part of the CORC project. The authors represent the perspectives not only of CORC founders, researchers, developers, and observers, but also of library practitioners and managers who are applying CORC to their daily operations. The discussions of the creation and use of CORC include: a big-picture view of CORC from the founder CORC's relation to the program for cooperative cataloging faceted access to LCSH the WordSmith project to obtain subject terminology directly from web documents use of online DDC to assist in classification and subject heading assignment OCLC's Dublin Core--MARC crosswalk librarians’experiences with the implementations of CORC within cataloging and cross-functional teams using CORC and Dublin Core to catalog special categories of material: serials, art, and maps CORC: New Tools and Possibilities for Cooperative Electronic Resource Description examines the nuts-and-bolts practical matters of making a cataloging system work in the Internet environment, where information objects are electronic, transient, and numerous. This valuable book will also help to define the future of librarianship and information access in this exciting time when the World Wide Web is transforming education and communication practices.
