- the creation of digital data, the use and access of existing data, the combination of data
- the use of modelling techniques and the essential functions of map algebra
- spatial statistics and spatial analysis
- geocomputation - including discussion of neural networks, cellular automata, and agent-based modelling
Illustrated throughout with explanatory figures, the text also includes a glossary, cross referenced to discussion in the text. Written very much from a user′s perspective, Key Concepts and Techniques in GIS is highly readable refresher course for intermediate level students and practitioners of GIS in the social and the natural sciences.
