I am honoured to be one of the contributors to this volume (Chapter 49) and its
companion DVD. This volume is designed to be a comprehensive resource on GIS for
students, researchers and practioners who are interested in asking spatial
questions, assessing landscapes, building geodatabases and envisioning a world
of integrated geospatial technologies. Top researchers in GIS from around the
world, along with emerging scholars, have told the story of a discipline that
originated alongside advances in computer technology and is increasingly
incorporated into our daily lives.
