商品描述
Although interest in Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSS) continues to grow rapidly in a wide range of disciplines, students, planners, managers, and the research community have lacked a book that covers the fundamentals of SDSS along with the advanced design concepts required for building SDSS.
Filling this need, Spatial Decision Support Systems: Principles and Practices provides a comprehensive examination of the various aspects of SDSS evolution, components, architecture, and implementation. It integrates research from a variety of disciplines, including the geosciences, to supply a complete overview of SDSS technologies and their application from an interdisciplinary perspective.
This groundbreaking reference provides thorough coverage of the roots of SDSS. It explains the core principles of SDSS, how to use them in various decision making contexts, and how to design and develop them using readily available enabling technologies and commercial tools. The book consists of four major parts, each addressing different topic areas in SDSS:
- Presents an introduction to SDSS and the evolution of SDSS
- Covers the essential and optional components of SDSS
- Focuses on the design and implementation of SDSS
- Reviews SDSS applications from various domains and disciplines--investigating current challenges and future directions
The text includes numerous detailed case studies, example applications, and methods for tailoring SDSS to your work environment. It also integrates sample code segments throughout. Addressing the technical and organizational challenges that affect the success or failure of SDSS, the book concludes by considering future directions of this rapidly emerging field of study.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
儘管對於空間決策支援系統(Spatial Decision Support Systems, SDSS)的興趣在各個學科中持續快速增長,但學生、規劃者、管理者以及研究社群一直缺乏一本涵蓋SDSS基本原理及建構SDSS所需的進階設計概念的書籍。
為了填補這一需求,空間決策支援系統:原則與實踐提供了對SDSS演變、組件、架構和實施各個方面的全面檢視。它整合了來自多個學科的研究,包括地球科學,從跨學科的角度提供SDSS技術及其應用的完整概述。
這本開創性的參考書徹底涵蓋了SDSS的根本。它解釋了SDSS的核心原則、如何在各種決策情境中使用這些原則,以及如何利用現成的啟用技術和商業工具來設計和開發SDSS。該書由四個主要部分組成,每個部分針對SDSS的不同主題領域:
1. 介紹SDSS及其演變
2. 涵蓋SDSS的基本和可選組件
3. 專注於SDSS的設計和實施
4. 回顧來自各個領域和學科的SDSS應用——探討當前挑戰和未來方向
本書包含了大量詳細的案例研究、示例應用以及調整SDSS以適應工作環境的方法。書中還整合了示例代碼片段。針對影響SDSS成功或失敗的技術和組織挑戰,該書最後考慮了這一快速新興研究領域的未來方向。

Dr. Ramanathan Sugumaran is Professor of Geography and Director of GeoTREE Center at the University of Northern Iowa. He has over nineteen years of research experience in remote sensing, geographic information systems (GIS), Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and spatial decision support systems (SDSS) with applications for natural resources and environmental planning and management.
Dr. Sugumaran has served as PI or Co-PI on over $5 million worth of research grants funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Raytheon Corp., the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR), the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. He has also published numerous journal articles and presented more than one hundred papers at national and international conferences. Dr. Sugumaran has two PhDs--a PhD in geography from the University of Edinburgh in the United Kingdom and one from the University of Baroda, India. For the past ten years, he has developed and taught several courses and advised more than twenty students on their masters theses. Dr. Sugumaran has also been a recipient of several academic awards that include the outstanding graduate faculty teaching award, Outstanding Scholar award, and Veridian Community Engagement Award.
John DeGroote is a GeoInformatics Scientist at the GeoTREE Center at the University of Northern Iowa. He has been actively applying geospatial technologies for environmental and natural resource applications for nine years.
