GIS Modelling for Strategic Planning of the Urban Environment by Sashko Martinovski, , available at Book Depository with free delivery worldwide. Technologically, geographical information systems (GIS) provide a powerful tool for geo-environmental evaluation in support of urban land-use planning. An important feature of a GIS is the ability to generate new information by integrating the existing diverse datasets sharing a compatible spatial referencing system (Goodchild, ).Cited by:
GIS are computer-based tools used to store, visualize, analyze, and interpret geographic data. These data include anything that can be associated with a location on the globe, or more simply anything that can be mapped. For example, cases of disease, hospitals, roads, waterways, country boundaries, and health catchment areas are all types of. Why planners use GIS GIS for the urban environment Layers Using GIS in an urban context Basic GIS functionality Typical GIS tasks Written Exercise 1: GIS on the Internet Chapter Two Modeling Spatial Data and Basic Mapping Concepts__25 The vector model The raster model Combining raster and vector Continuous vs. discrete data Scale Generalization Geographic extent, geographic unit of analysis, and .
Community Development Green spaces, well-planned roads, recreation, and affordable housing—these features attract people to a community. Planners, economic developers, and urban designers depend on the smart maps and spatial analytics in Esri's ArcGIS software to find the best ways to deliver what people want—a high quality of life and. Urban Remote Sensing is designed for upper level undergraduates, graduates, researchers and practitioners, and has a clear focus on the development of remote sensing technology for monitoring, synthesis and modeling in the urban environment. It covers four major areas: the use of high-resolution satellite imagery or alternative sources of image date (such as high-resolution SAR and LIDAR) for.

To my knowledge, it is the most complete and well written book dealing with GIS in an urban setting. The text is clear and simple without being simplistic, the labs are well designed and do a good job putting theory into practice, and the case studies are varied and by: In the context of information technology, it is explained the geographical information system (GIS) as a leader in spatial analysis and necessary technology in strategic planning.
In the fourth part of the book it is shown a new original concept of modeling for the strategic planning of urban areas in building business : Sashko Martinovski.
GIS for Planning and the Built Environment is a really interesting book with a unique and refreshing approach to GIS. This text provides an effective cross-sectional overview of GIS and spatial analysis concepts and refers to many real-world examples which should be useful to planners.5/5(1).
