Spatial and Temporal Reasoning in Geographic Information Systems by Max J Egenhofer

In an effort to further investigation into critical development facets of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), this book explores the reasoning processes that apply to geographic space and time. As a result of an iniative sponsored by the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis (NCGIA), it treats the computational, cognitive and social science applications aspects of spatial and temporal reasoning in GIS. Essays were contributed by scholars from a broad spectrum of disciplines including: geography, cartography, surveying and engineering, computer science, mathematics and environmental and cognitive psychology.
The book provides an overview of spatial temporal research related to GIS.. the extensive reference list at the end of each chapter is a valuable starting point for the search for more in-depth understanding on space-time issues. - Menno-Jan Kraak. GIS Europe. December 1998.
Golledge, Reginald G.: - Reginald G. Golledge is a professor of geography at the University of California, Santa Barbara. His many books include Spatial Behavior: A Geographic Perspective and Spatial and Temporal Reasoning in Geographic Information Systems.
