Spatial Sciences
- Mapping links
Note:
This is not an official web page, but rather something I have put
together for those who may be interested mapping links for the
Spatial Sciences.
What are the Spatial Sciences?
Spatial Science includes such fields as mapping/cartography, GIS
(Geographic Information Systems), surveying, GPS, aerial/satellite
imagery, and photogrammetry.
It is a growth area, given the potential use for such things as
GIS.
For more information, see the Destination Spatial
website.
For the layman, GIS software is a combination of mapping and
database software. If you have information in a database that has
some geographic aspect to it, then you may be able to use it in a
GIS. As such, there is enormous potential for its use.
The list of links below is by no means intended to be
comprehensive but rather a 'starting point'.
