The second edition of a bestseller, Mathematical Techniques in GIS demystifies the mathematics used in the manipulation of spatially related data. The author takes a stepbystep approach through the basics of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, trigonometry and calculus that underpin the management of such data. He then explores the use of matrices, determinants and vectors in the handling of geographic information so that the data may be analyzed and displayed in twodimensional form either in the visualization of the terrain or as map projections.See Whats New in the Second Edition:Summaries at the end of each chapterWorked examples of techniques describedAdditional material on matrices and vectorsFurther material on map projectionsNew material on spatial correlationA new section on global positioning systemsWritten for those who need to make use geographic information systems but have a limited mathematical background, this book introduces the basic statistical techniques commonly used in geographic information systems and explains bestfit solutions and the mathematics behind satellite positioning. By understanding the mathematics behind the gathering, processing, and display of information, you can better advise others on the integrity of results, the quality of the information, and the safety of using it.
