Cet atlas a été réalisé à partir des résultats du premier recensement général de la population, en Iran, qui ont été publiés en 1961 en persan, sous la forme de 119 fascicules pour chacun des districts de recensement (howzeh sarshomari) et de deux volumes de synthèse publiés en persan et en anglais en 1961 et en 1962. La réalisation de ce recensement a également été l'occasion de la cartographie exhaustive du territoire national.
Pour réaliser cet Atlas, une centaine de variables ont été collationnées à l’échelle des 119 districts de recensement (howzeh sarshomāri), par Abbas Rajaei et Hossein Mansourian, maîtres de conférences à la faculté de géographie de l’Université de Téhéran. Elles ont été analysées en 2019 avec Bernard Hourcade dans le cadre d’une collaboration académique avec le Centre de recherche sur le monde iranien (CeRMI), UMR 8041 (CNRS, Sorbonne nouvelle, Inalco, EPHE).

La conception de l'État-nation, née de la Révolution française, portait en elle-même la mort des empires multinationaux. Depuis lors, ceux-ci ont tous disparu. Le dernier en date était l'Union soviétique. L'Atlas des empires recense et résume à l'aide de cartes plus d'une quarantaine d'empires au fil de l'histoire du monde. Il dégage des perspectives nouvelles sur les rapports conflictuels à la fois déstabilisateurs et créateurs entre les sociétés nomades et les sociétés sédentaires, de l'Antiquité à l'aube de la période moderne. Pour la première fois, on peut mesurer de façon succincte, à l'échelle de la planète, depuis les origines de l'histoire, la place particulière et l'empreinte qu'ont laissées les grands empires.

Discover how the R programming language can transform your GIS journey, empowering you to create stunning maps, analyze spatial data, and unlock advanced geospatial insights–no prior experience needed!
This book is all about the scripting language R, and how you can use it as a GIS to manage, display, symbolise, and analyse spatial data. While initially starting out as a statistics package, now R can also create maps and perform spatial analysis - much like the tools you would find in QGIS or ArcGIS Pro.
In this book, we will cover the basics of GIS and R, as well as some more advanced visualisation and analysis techniques. We assume no prior knowledge of GIS or scripting. This book is also suitable if you have previously used a graphical desktop GIS, but want to move to a script-based GIS. Two of the key benefits for adopting a script-based approach are: code reusability, and sharing of knowledge with others, e.g. sharing code from a research project.

Remotely sensed data, in the form of digital images captured from spaceborne and airborne platforms, provide a rich analytical and observational source of information about the current status, as well as changes occurring in, on, and around the Earth’s surface. The data products, or simply images processed from these platforms, provide an additional advantage in that geographic areas or regions of interest can be revisited on a regular cycle. This revisit cycle allows geospatial analysts and natural resource managers to explore changing conditions over time.
Image Processing and Data Analysis with ERDAS IMAGINE® explains the principles behind the processing of remotely sensed data in a simple, easy to understand, and "how-to" format.

What is pgRouting? It's a PostgreSQL extension for developing network routing applications and doing graph analysis.
Interested in pgRouting? If so, chances are you already use PostGIS, the spatial extender for the PostgreSQL database management system. So when you've got PostGIS, why do you need pgRouting? PostGIS is a great tool for molding geometries and doing proximity analysis, however it falls short when your proximity analysis involves constrained paths such as driving along a road or biking along defined paths.
PostGIS alone can't help you apply costs and resource constraints to your travels, such as traffic congestion, mileage restrictions, or allocating resources like vehicles. pgRouting is a complement to PostGIS that allows you to incorporate costs and path restrictions to your proximity analysis.
pgRouting is well suited to building travel navigation systems and computing driving distance polygons for places of interest. While ... Lire la suite

Un ouvrage percutant, rigoureux et vivant pour comprendre ce qui se joue et se décide derrière les conflits d’aujourd’hui.
Dans cette nouvelle édition revue et actualisée, l’auteur propose une approche originale
des grands enjeux de notre temps, en les reliant les uns aux autres à travers la superposition de cartes de différentes régions, du plan local au plan mondial, et réciproquement.
Comment la Chine est-elle devenue la seconde puissance mondiale ? Comment peuvent évoluer les relations entre les États-Unis et les pays du Moyen-Orient ? L’Europe des 27 est-elle un ensemble géopolitique majeur ? La Russie peut-elle espérer reconquérir son statut d’empire ?… Chacune de ces situations est éclaircie, commentée, analysée au regard d’une évolution dans le temps. Le lecteur peut ainsi mieux comprendre les intérêts, les points de vue et les réactions des peuples de tous ces pays et de leurs dirigeants.
