The Accuracy Of Spatial Databases

Herausgeber: Goodchild, Michael F.; Gopal, Sucharita

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The book addresses the problem of accuracy of spatial databases, and comprises of papers drawn from a wide range of physical and human systems, taking approaches which vary from statistical to descriptive. Together they present both a comprehensive review of existing knowledge, techniques and experience, and an analysis of critical research needs in this area of spatial data handling.
