[GIS Book/PDF] Spatial Interpolation for Climate Data: The Use of GIS in Climatology and Meteorology

Description

This title gives an authoritative look at the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in climatology and meterology. GIS provides a range of strategies, from traditional methods, such as those for hydromet database analysis and management, to new developing methods. As such, this book will provide a useful reference tool in this important aspect of climatology and meterology study.Content: Chapter 1 GIS, Climatology and Meteorology (pages 3–24): Antonio PerdigaoChapter 2 SIGMA: A Web?Based GIS for Environmental Applications (pages 25–34): Carlos Frederico Angelis, Fabiano Morelli, Luiz Augusto Toledo Machado and Cintia Pereira De FreitasChapter 3 Web Mapping: Different Solutions using GIS (pages 35–44): Pawel Madej, Malgorzata Barszczynska and Danuta KubackaChapter 4 Comparison of Geostatistical and Meteorological Interpolation Methods (What is What?)
