520 GIS for Science presents a collection of real-world
stories about modern science and a cadre of scientists who
use mapping and spatial analytics to expand their
understanding of the world. The accounts in this book are
written for a broad audience including professional
scientists, the swelling ranks of citizen scientists, and
people generally interested in science and geography.
Scientific data are brought to life with GIS technology to
study a range of issues relevant to the functioning of
planet Earth in a natural sense as well as the impacts of
human activity. In a race against the clock, the
scientists profiled in this volume are using remote
sensing, web maps within a geospatial cloud, Esri
StoryMaps, and spatial analysis to document and solve an
array of issues with a geographic dimension, ranging from
climate change, natural disasters, and loss of
biodiversity, to homelessness, loss of green
infrastructure, and resource shortages. These stories
present geospatial ideas and inspiration that readers can
apply across many disciplines, making this volume relevant
to a diverse scientific audience. See how scientists
working on the world's most pressing problems apply
