Le portail francophone de la géomatique

Rubrique : SIG, Généralités / Géomatique

 Description : Not about the basic concepts of geographical information systems themselves, and not about hardware or software per se, nor the concepts of geo-referenced data handling built into such systems. Instead, the focus is on the issues of geo-information management-- the application of geographical understanding to problem solving in the wider context of information handling. The discussion includes general issues, data quality and accuracy, system integration, legal and copyright issues, the role of analysis, user interfaces, problems of visualization, and image-based spatial information systems which use aerial photography and satellite imagery.
