Author : Anil Kumar Singh & Usha Kiran Chopra
Pages : 354
Year of Publication : 2007
Language : English
Binding : Hardback
The Earth operates as a complex system, and the existing infrastructure and methodologies are insufficient for the community to address many of the issues associated with it. An integrated and innovative approach is necessary to analyze, model, and develop extensive and diverse datasets in order to solve these problems. Geoinformatics, which is the synergy of multiple disciplines including earth sciences, GIS, remote sensing, GPS, photogrammetry, and cartography, is rapidly developing in areas where data is identified by its location. Currently, there is a chaotic distribution of available datasets, a lack of documentation about them and the methodologies used, and a lack of easily accessible tools, computer modeling, and other resources, which pose major obstacles for earth scientists attempting to find solutions. The authors have endeavored to remove these barriers by bringing together relevant information and techniques, as well as recent advances in these fields. This book provides a comprehensive overview of various topics related to the applications of geoinformatics, which are highly diverse and include space and environmental monitoring, watershed management, water resources and management, productivity enhancement in agro-ecosystems, resource information systems, precision farming, monitoring of glaciers and lakes, geospatial techniques, and livelihood improvement using GIS.
