It addresses perceptual and cognitive aspects of natural and artificial cognitive systems, computational aspects with respect to identifying or selecting landmarks for various purposes, and communication aspects of human-computer interaction for spatial information provision. Concise and organized, the book equips readers to handle complex conceptual aspects of trying to define and formally model these situations. The book provides a thorough review of the cognitive, conceptual, computational and communication aspects of GIS landmarks. This review is unique for comparing concepts across a spectrum of sub-disciplines in the field. Portions of the ideas discussed led to the world’s first commercial navigation service using landmarks selected with cognitive principles. Landmarks: GI Science for Intelligent Services targets practitioners and researchers working in geographic information science, computer science, information science, cognitive science, geography and psychology. Advanced-level students in computer science, geography and psychology will also find this book valuable as a secondary textbook or reference.ComputersGeographical information systemsArtificial intelligenceGeographyPsychologyInformation Systems and Communication Servicehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I18008Geographical Information Systems/Cartographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J13000Artificial Intelligencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000Geography, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J00000Psychology, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y00007Computers.Geographical information systems.Artificial intelligence.Geography.Psychology.Information Systems and Communication Service.Geographical Information Systems/Cartography.Artificial Intelligence.Geography, general.Psychology, general.004005.7006.3150Richter Kai-Florianauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut929719Winter Stephanauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910299051003321Landmarks2089758UNINA
