This book, based on an international conference held in 1991, is aimed at those with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) experience who need to know more about environmental modelling, and at environmental modellers who want to know more about GIS, its advantages, and its problems. The first part of the book describes the state of the art in GIS, environmental modelling, spatial statistics, and spatial databases. The second part reviews the state of integration in each of the major "process" areas, ranging from atmospheric to subsurface. Each section includes an overview chapter and case studies. This book will be useful to planners, academic reearchers, environmental consultants, and as a text for advanced GIS courses.
