5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent introduction to a new field,
By
This review is from: Geocomputation: A Primer (Paperback)
What is geocomputation ? To some, a revolutionary way of dealing with spatial data. To others, a collection of known tools under a new brand name. In any case, all of those which are interested in geographical information systems (GIS) will benefit enormously from reading this book, which provides a comprehensive review of this new field. All articles are interesting, but especially noteworthy is Couclelis's state-of-the-art review, with a number of interesting points about the notion of "geocomputation". Important contributions also come from Oppenshaw (he reviews his GAM and GAM/K algorithms), Anselin (exploratory data analysis), Batty (visualisation) and Burrough (dynamical modelling). In short, if you want to know what "geocomputation" is about, this is the place to start.
