The book "Design of geoinformation systems" edited by Savelyev A. C. is a unique work that immerses the reader in the world of geoinformation technologies, their design and practical application This publication will become a real guide for students, graduate students, specialists in the field of geodesy, cartography, ecology and many other related disciplines. If you are interested in modern technologies related to the processing of spatial data, and want to learn how to create an effective geographic information system (GIS), then this book is for you The main goal of the book is to reveal the key aspects of GIS design, ranging from theoretical foundations to practical recommendations. The authors consider in detail the various stages of GIS development, including requirements analysis, architecture selection, database design and user interface. The book is filled with examples from real practice, which allows the reader not only to learn theoretical knowledge, but also to see how they are applied in life. One of the main topics raised in the book is the integration of geographic information systems with other information technologies. With the rapid development of IT, it is important to understand how GIS can interact with big data, cloud computing and the Internet of Things. This makes the book especially relevant for professionals working in the field of smart cities, ecology, agriculture and many other areas where spatial data play a key role. The book will be of interest not only to professionals, but also to students who are just beginning their journey in the world of geoinformation technologies. It is written in an accessible language, which makes it easy to assimilate complex concepts and terms. Readers who are looking for information on how to create their first GIS will find many useful tips and recommendations in this book. Savelyev A. C. and his team of authors have extensive experience in the field of geographic information systems, which gives the book additional value Their previous works, such as Geoinformation Technologies in Natural Resources Management and Fundamentals of Cartography, have already established themselves as authoritative sources in this field. In Geoinformation Systems Design, they combine their knowledge and experience to provide the reader with the most comprehensive and up-to-date guidance. The book also addresses important aspects related to legal and ethical issues arising from the use of geoinformation technologies. Amid growing concerns about data privacy and use, the authors raise questions about how to ensure security and ethics in GIS design. This makes the book especially valuable for those who strive not only for technical excellence, but also for social responsibility in their work. If you are looking for literature on the design of geoinformation systems, the "Design of geoinformation systems" Savelyeva A. C. It will be an indispensable resource for you. This book will not only expand your knowledge, but also inspire new ideas and projects in the field of geoinformation technologies. Do not miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the fascinating world of GIS and discover new horizons in this dynamically developing sphere!
