Peta gratis dan kolaboratif mempunyai keunikan yang berharga untuk pekerjaan kemanusiaan, terutama di tempat-tempat dimana peta dasar sangat jarang ditemukan, datanya sudah lama, atau seringkali berubah. Dibangun dalam dua tahun dari kolaborasi secara informal. Tim Kemanusiaan OpenStreetMap merupakan sebuah inisiatif yang baru untuk mengaplikasikan prinsip dan aktifitas dari sumber terbuka dan …
This is the Fourth Edition of a best selling FORTRAN 77 text that is well known for its clear, concise method of teaching students how to solve real world problems using computers. The authors have continued to improve upon their strong pedagogical approach that teaches the basic steps in program development: problem analysis and specification, algorithm developments, program coding, program ex…
We begin this chapter with a discussion outlining the importance of structuring no only the data pertaining to the solution of a problem, but also the programs that operate on the data. The task of formulating a solution to a problem is made simpler if the problem can be analyzed in terms of subproblems.
The objective of landslide hazard zonation is subdivision of an area into zones with an equal susceptibility to or probability for the occurrence of mass movements. Many different methods have been proposed in the literature. These methods have in common the combination and integration of a series of input maps, which is a time consuming process if done manually.
About the cover : The natural landscape transformed by human action : only the hilltops still carry the forest that once draped the hillsides and valleys around the village of Khodi in lower Nepal. The slope have been terraced and now stand under rice; irrigation controls the flow of water into the stream below. But evidence of the natural forces at work here still marks the countryside. The in…

In general, he is concerned with the planet’s lower atmosphere, surface skin, and thin layer of crustal material, or the land-sea-air interface. Here it is that life occurs, localities differ, various conditions appear simultaneously, different processes have been at work since the Earth became relatively stable, and ch…
This is a book about geography. It is also about Geographic Information Systems (GIS) – a fundamental set of automated ideas and concepts rooted in over 2500 years of explorations and geographic research (Dobson, 1995) and designed to provide answers to questions based on mapped data. As a practicing geographer I have long been intrigued by the idea of geographer as explorer.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is the organized activity by which people : • Measure aspects of geographic phenomena and processes; • Represent these measurements, usually in the form of a computer database, to emphasize spatial themes, entities and relationships; • Operate upon these representation to produce more measurements, and to discover new relationship by integrating dis…
