Intelligent Positioning: GIS-GPS Unification
內容描述
Description
GIS and GPS integration is
happening in research and commercial activities worldwide, however this is the
first GIS-GPS integration book to look at applications that combine GIS and
GPS to provide one solution. It begins by providing readers with technical
overviews of GPS and GIS and their integration, and then focuses on a
selection of R&D activities in applications ranging from intelligent
transport systems to real time location based tourist information systems.
Provides overview chapters on GIS, GPS and GIS-GPS integration for
readers who are less familiar with either system
Based on the authors’ own research and development activities in both
the UK and the US
Includes case studies in each chapter to illustrate the
end-product/commercial activities that research can lead to
