The book on the fundamentals of geographic Information systems and remote sensing is concise, targeted, and reader-centric. It teaches the fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems and key concepts underlying the technology, with an emphasis on practical concerns and real-world applications. This book is designed to be accessible, pragmatic, and precise in recognition of the fact that many potential GIS users are non-specialists or need only a few maps. The fundamentals of Geographic Information Systems also demonstrate how GIS can be used to enhance agricultural production, disaster management, and resource management. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the use and application of digital maps, mapping, and GIS. The third chapter of this book covers a wide range of topics regarding the process and concept of digital Image processing. The filtering and enhancement of images, as well as a GIS-related case study, are described in great detail. Remote sensing, another essential component of GIS, is also covered in great detail in this book, whether it be the discussion of the concept of remote sensing or the follow-up on the topics of the various types of sensors and scanners. In the section on remote sensing, the GPS and its related concepts and applications are also discussed. After reading the book one should have clear idea all around GIS and remote sensing.
