Description
Advances in Web-based GIS, Mapping Services and Applications is published as part of ISPRS WG IV/5 effort, and aims at presenting (1) Recent technological advancements, e.g., new developments under Web 2.0, map mashups, neogeography and the like; (2) Balanced theoretical discussions and technical implementations; (3) Commentary on the current stage
Reviews / Votes
"Today, keeping up on the latest in thought and innovation concerning the map and its use is an exhaustive exercise with dazzling changes in buzzwords, acronyms and players. This is why a publication summarizing where things are at concerning the relationship between the map and the Web, produced by the key players in the field, is so welcome. Congratulations to Drs. Li, Dragicevic and Veenendaal for publishing this collection of 21 chapters by 64 authors from 11 different nations. The book does a good job capturing a snapshot of thought and practice about the map and the Web at the end of the first decade of the new millennium. It is a welcome reference and an invaluable resource for educators, researchers and practitioners."-Peter Keller, Geomatica, Vol. 65, No. 4, 2011
