Geoinformatics in Applied Geomorphology

Preface 

Geoinformatics is the science and technology dealing with the acquisition, processing, analyzing, and visualization of spatial information. It includes remote sensing, photogrammetry, geographic information systems, global positioning systems, and cartography. The technologies in geoinformatics have been used in various disciplines such as geology, geography, urban planning, environmental science, and global change science.
