 GEOINT 2009: From Intel to Imaging, But Full Motion Video Stole the Show
The
United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation's GEOINT Symposium
(Oct 19-22, San Antonio, TX) underwent a major transformation this
year. Historically a conference offering a broad suite of geospatial
solutions, it now emphasizes satellite imaging and specifically this
year, the exploitation of full motion video (FMV). There seemed to be
less of a focus on pure GIS technology, but a heavy concentration on
remote sensing. Editor in Chief Joe Francica provides a recap of the
technology offered by the conference exhibitors.
 Principles of Modeling Uncertainties in Spatial Data and Spatial Analyses
When
compared to classical sciences such as math, with roots in prehistory,
and physics, with roots in antiquity, geographical information science
(GISci) is the new kid on the block. Its theoretical foundations are
therefore still developing and data quality and uncertainty modeling
for spatial data and spatial analysis is an important branch of that
theory. Principles of Modeling Uncertainties in Spatial Data and Spatial Analyses outlines the foundational principles and supplies a firm grasp of the disciplines' theoretical underpinnings. From CRC, 2009.  National Geographic Image Collection
Behind
National Geographic's worldwide reputation as a powerhouse of
photography lies one of the finest, most extensive, and most unique
graphic resources on Earth: the National Geographic Image Collection.
For the first time ever, readers will plumb the fascinating depths of
this immense archive from the earliest photographs collected in the
late 19th century to the cutting-edge work of today. Both iconic and
never-before-seen images from virtually every corner of the globe,
every species of wildlife, and amazing human achievements in
exploration, adventure, science and more are showcased and placed in
historic, artistic, technical and journalistic context. From Focal
Point, 2009.  Spatial Information Theory: 9th International Conference, COSIT 2009 Proceedings
This
book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International
Conference on Spatial Information Theory, COSIT 2009 held in Aber
Wrac'h, France in September 2009. The 30 revised full papers were
carefully reviewed from 70 submissions. They are organized in topical
sections on cognitive processing and models for spatial cognition,
semantic modeling, spatial reasoning, spatial cognition, spatial
knowledge, scene and visibility modeling, spatial modeling, events and
processes, and route planning. From Springer, 2009.
