Spatial Statistics GeoSpatial Information Modeling and Thematic Mapping

""[This book] covers many topics that are poorly treated by others. ... Chapter 2 on sampling is a true gem. It covers all the standard approaches, but in addition has an extensive discussion of multiphase or double sampling which Kalkhan has used extensively in his own research. There is also an extensive discussion of a case study in which a pixel nested plot (PNP) sampling design is used. This is useful material for researchers and course instructors alike. ... This reviewer enjoyed Chapter 4 immensely. It provides a stimulating discussion of geospatial analysis and modeling including the t.

  • "Geospatial information modeling and mapping has become an important tool for the investigation and management of natural resources at the landscape scale. Spatial Statistics: GeoSpatial Information Modeling and Thematic Mapping reviews the types and applications of geospatial information data, such as remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), and GPS as well as their integration into landscape-scale geospatial statistical models and maps. The book explores how to extract information from remotely sensed imagery, GIS, and GPS, and how to combine this with field data--vegetation, soil, and environmental--to produce a spatial model that can be reconstructed an displayed using GIS software. Readers learn the requirements and limitations of each geospatial modeling and mapping tool. Case studies with real-life examples illustrate important applications of the models."
