An examination of how geographers from all branches of the discipline can enhance their work using computers. Chapters include data collection, storage, management, analysis and presentation and examples are used to indicate how best to apply information to specific problems in geography.

The work is aimed primarily at first and second year undergraduates who should find that it offers an overview of current and potential future applications of computers in geography. It also present details of the impact of information technology on science and society. Lecturers should be able to use it to find ways of using computers to enhance their teaching, research and administration.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
