Yet, this interdisciplinary and/or transdisciplinary system is still somewhat misunderstood. This book talks about some of the GISc domains encompassing students, researchers, and common users. Chapters focus on important aspects of GISc, keeping in mind the processing capability of GIS along with the mathematics and formulae involved in getting each solution. The book has one introductory and eight main chapters divided into five sections. The first section is more general and focuses on what GISc is and its relation to GIS and Geography, the second is about location analytics and modeling, the third on remote sensing data analysis, the fourth on big data and augmented reality, and, finally, the fifth looks over volunteered geographic information. 606 $aGeographic information systems 615 0$aGeographic information systems. 676 $a910.2 702 $aAbrantes$b Patricia 702 $aRocha$b Jorge 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688421403321 996 $aGeographic information systems and science$9753944 997 $aUNINA
