New interviews with subject matter and industry experts on GIS for disaster management in the US and abroad New career advice on getting a first job in the industry. Learned yet accessible, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Disaster Management continues to be a valuable teaching tool for undergraduate and graduate instructors in the disaster management and GIS fields, as well as disaster management and humanitarian professionals"-- Provided by publisher |
