They have opened up new methodologies and epistemologies, challenged fundamental research categories, and charted new areas of geographical inquiry. For the most part, however, these two Ž elds have remained stubbornly apart—unconnected, uncommunicative...

The truthfulness and understandability of information is dependent upon the way it is presented. It is admitted now that almost 85% of the data in human brain is related to geography and we continuously keep upgrading urban information in our brain consciously or unconsciously. This information, if updated frequently, affects most of the decisions made in our life. Maps are considered an easy a...

This paper introduces the characteristics of Geography Information System (GIS) and the actuality and assignment of environmental monitoring. The authors expound GIS applications in ecological monitoring, water monitoring, air monitoring and environmental noise monitoring, then illuminate the vital role of GIS in environmental protection. GIS is the computer information system that can collect,...

Geographical Bioinformatics Systems (GBS) represent the marriage between two distinct and well established fields, GIS & Bioinformatics. Bioinformatics refer to the use of computers to handle biological information—that is, the use computers to store, compare, retrieve, analyze and predict the composition or structure of biomolecules. On the other hand, the term Geographic Information Systems (...

A workshop on temporal relations in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) was held on October 12-13, 1990, at the University of Maine. The meeting was sponsored by the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis (NCGIA). Seventeen specialists gathered from the fields of Geography, GIS, and Computer Science to discuss users' requirements of temporal GIS and to identify the research is...

This paper has proposed GML-GIS, which is a prototype system for geographic information service over the Web based on GML (Geography Markup Language). This system generates geographic information into GML document by user requests through URL and provides them with various styles applied to the document on the Web browser. This proposed system converts geographic information of a spatial databa...
