ArcPad (mobile GIS). 330 $aThis textbook is a step-by-step tutorial on the applications of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in environmental and water resource issues. It provides information about GIS and its applications, specifically using the most advanced ESRI GIS technology and its extensions. Eighteen chapters cover GIS applications in the field of earth sciences and water resources in detail from the ground up. Author William Bajjali explains what a GIS is and what it is used for, the basics of map classification, data acquisition, coordinate systems and projections, vectorization, geodatabase and relational database, data editing, geoprocessing, suitability modeling, working with raster, watershed delineation, mathematical and statistical interpolation, and more advanced techniques, tools and extensions such as ArcScan, Topology, Geocoding, Hydrology, Geostatistical Analyst, Spatial Analyst, Network Analyst, 3-D Analyst. ArcPad, ESRI?s cutting-edge mobile GIS software, is covered in detail as well. Each chapter contains concrete case studies and exercises ? many from the author?s own work in the United States and Middle East. This volume is targeted toward advanced undergraduates, but could also be useful for professionals and for anyone who utilizes GIS or practices spatial analysis in relation to geology, hydrology, ecology, and environmental sciences. 410 0$aSpringer Textbooks in Earth Sciences, Geography and Environment,$x2510-1307 606 $aGeographic information systems 606 $aHydrogeology 606 $aHydrology 606 $aEnvironmental monitoring 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aGeographical Information Systems/Cartography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J13000 606 $aHydrogeology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G19005 606 $aHydrology/Water Resources$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/211000 606 $aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U1400X 606 $aRegional/Spatial Science$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W49000 615 0$aGeographic information systems. 615 0$aHydrogeology. 615 0$aHydrology. 615 0$aEnvironmental monitoring. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 14$aGeographical Information Systems/Cartography. 615 24$aHydrogeology. 615 24$aHydrology/Water Resources. 615 24$aMonitoring/Environmental Analysis. 615 24$aRegional/Spatial Science. 676 $a910 700 $aBajjali$b William$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060262 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299388603321 996 $aArcGIS for Environmental and Water Issues$92512056 997 $aUNINA
