The Updated Second Edition of Fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems includes thirteen laboratory exercises integrated into the text itself. The labs are linked to particular chapter where the concepts described in the reading can be practiced immediately in a laboratory setting.
The second edition of this well-received text on principles of geographic information systems (GIS) continues the author\'s style of "straight talk" in its presentation. The writing is accessible and easy to follow. Unlike most other texts, this book covers GIS design and modeling, reflecting the belief that modeling and analysis are at the heart of GIS. This enables students to understand how to use a GIS and what it does.

Explore the modern world of geographic information systems

Now updated and revised, Michael DeMers’s Fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems, 3e equips you with a set of basic concepts and skills you’ll need to solve everyday geographical problems, and perhaps even uncover new uses for this powerful technology.
