Description:

On the European continent, nations already geographically unified are becoming even more closely bound every year in other ways: administratively, politically, economically. A common physical geography means common problems in natural resources and environmental management that in turn require solutions using a unified approach. Nowhere is this reality more clearly defined than with the issue of European water management.

“In the industrial societies of Europe the management of water relates to the design, implementation and monitoring of highly complex systems,” writes Jürgen Vogt of the European Commission’s Institute for Environment and Sustainability, in the foreword to this book. “The management of water resources through numerous administrative and technical bodies, as well as the frequent crossing of national borders, requires the harmonisation of data across administrative and political entities.”

The premier technology to engage this harmonisation on the continent is geographic information systems (GIS). GIS for Water Management in Europe recounts the myriad, imaginative ways that European organisations, agencies and governments are using GIS technology to bring unity to a diverse group of problems. Drinking-water distribution, flood control and pollution mitigation constitute only a few of the challenges facing Europeans that are being solved with the visualisation and data management tools of GIS technology. Much like a common currency, GIS is clearing the path for a more integrated, more efficient and more prosperous Europe.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

描述：
在歐洲大陸上，已經在地理上統一的國家每年在其他方面都更加緊密地結合在一起：行政、政治、經濟上。共同的地理環境意味著在自然資源和環境管理方面存在共同的問題，這些問題需要統一的解決方法。在歐洲水資源管理問題上，這一現實比任何地方都更加明確。

“在歐洲的工業社會中，水資源管理涉及到高度複雜系統的設計、實施和監測，”歐洲委員會環境和可持續發展研究所的Jürgen Vogt在本書的前言中寫道。“通過眾多行政和技術機構以及頻繁的跨國界活動來管理水資源，需要在行政和政治實體之間協調數據。”

在歐洲大陸上，用於實現這種協調的頂尖技術是地理信息系統（GIS）。《歐洲水資源管理的GIS》描述了歐洲組織、機構和政府如何使用GIS技術來解決各種多樣的問題，從飲用水分配、洪水控制到污染緩解等等。就像共同的貨幣一樣，GIS為一個更加統一、更加高效、更加繁榮的歐洲鋪平了道路。
