High Performance Geographic Information System
The development of earth observation and computing technology has promoted the wide application of spatio-temporal big data and artificial intelligence. The enrichment of data and the improvement of computational performance make it possible to perform spatio-temporal analysis and computation on a larger scale. Therefore, it is necessary to study the optimization methods and application methods of high-performance geocomputing, starting from GIS architecture, in order to form a high-performance GIS that can serve the society and economy and support various applications. This book focuses on the architecture, technology, platform, and application of high-performance GIS, analyzes the key technologies of spatio-temporal big data organization and access, parallelized spatial analysis and processing, large-scale map rendering, and parallel visualization under the high-performance computing architecture, explains how to build high-performance geographic information applications, and looks forward to the trend of the new generation of GIS.
Comprehensive Geographic Information Systems
Geographical Information Systems, Three Volume Set is a computer system used to capture, store, analyze and display information related to positions on the Earth’s surface. It has the ability to show multiple types of information on multiple geographical locations in a single map, enabling users to assess patterns and relationships between different information points, a crucial component for multiple aspects of modern life and industry. This 3-volumes reference provides an up-to date account of this growing discipline through in-depth reviews authored by leading experts in the field. VOLUME EDITORSThomas J.
