Scale in Spatial Information and Analysis

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Essential to the comprehension of spatial phenomena and application of spatial information, scale dependencies, along with their representations and analyses, must be properly and usefully incorporated for better-informed spatial problem-solving. This book provides a coherent synthesis of past and current research on scale issues in spatial information and analysis. Within a clear geostatistical framework, it describes those fundamental concepts, theories, and techniques essential for scale-dependent and sensitive handling of multi-source spatial data. It includes examples and illustrations for mathematical detail and outlines potential future developments in the field.
