4.0 out of 5 stars
Comprehensive GIS Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Geographic Information Systems: An Introduction (Hardcover)
A comprehensive GIS book specially for the introductory and intermediate readers and students. The book has dealt with the current organizational and technical issues of GIS. The components of GIS are described with illustrations. Object Oriented model in database could have been added. Since this is an introductory book, some of the chapters for advanced readers are concise. The content is clear even for the nontechnical readers.

An ideal introduction and valuable reference,
By husdal.com (SLC, UT, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Geographic Information Systems: An Introduction (Hardcover)
This review refers to the 1996 Norwegian edition. Having studied GIS for 2 years, first at a Norwegian college, and then doing an MSc in GIS at a UK university, I have found this book a very valuable reference. The examples and case descriptions are depicting real-life problems, the illustrations are explanatory and to the point. The book covers GIS and related topics in a way I haven't found in any other books. I can recommend this book to anyone, student or professional. Now I am about to start a PhD at a University in the US, where I have noticed that this book in fact is the required textbook for GIS. To me this proves the overall quality of this book.
