 | | One of the earliest books to attempt a global perspective of GIS, Geographic Information Systems: A Management Perspective, by Stan Aronoff (WDL Publications,1989), is still a gem. |
 | | The book briefly describes GIS applications in municipal information management, but is most valuable in its coverage of applications in agriculture, land use planning, mineral exploration and environmental management. |
 | | Aronoff provides a detailed discussion of GIS, remote sensing and database technologies, and describes how geographic data is collected, managed, analyzed and used to produce information products. |
