"This book provides a new and comprehensive view of what scale means in today's rapidly advancing world of geographic information technologies. The authors and editors are some of the most reputable figures in the field, and passionate about creating more awareness of the importance of scale, and more knowledge of its properties and impacts. It is a very welcome addition to the literature on the topic, one that should be part of the library of every environmental or social scientist."-Michael F. Goodchild, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA
"This book is a superb mix of theory and a wide range of impactful applications, and at the same time integrates this with modern concepts and data sources such as complexity science and crowd-sourcing. I recommend this book to readers who are keen to understand the real world, and to know how to manipulate spatial and space-time data in a principled way."
-Peter M. Atkinson, Lancaster University, United Kingdom
"The scale is a fundamental concept in geographical analysis, and this book addresse[s] the importance of scale in remote sensing (or broadly GIScience) from different per-spectives. This well-organized book includes four themes (13 Chapters), namely scale/multi-scaling issues, physical scale, human scale, and social scale."
-Mingshu Wang, University of Twente, Netherlands

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
