Transportation information, however, has often not been accessible in a user-friendly manner, and integrating data from diverse sources has too often been a challenge in itself. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have revolutionized spatial planning and decision making by using the spatial dimension of the depicted world as a common thread according to which all information can be referenced. The application of GIS to transportation research (GIS-T) is quickly becoming a mature domain of application of the GIS technology and has gained full recognition among transportation practitioners and academics. This book fills a void by providing an overview of the state-of-the-art of GIS for transportation, from data management issues, to data manipulation and analysis, including considerations brought to the forefront by real-time and mobile computing. The twenty-two original contributions by internationally acclaimed authors will be a key reference for practitioners, students and scholars.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pergamon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46896278274199,"sku":"9780080436302","price":15647.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780080436302.webp?v=1770357535","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/geographic-information-systems-in-transportation-research-9780080436302","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
