Geostatistics for Environmental and Geotechnical Applications

Foreword

This publication, Geostatistics for Environmental and Geotechnical Applications, contains papers presented at the symposium of the same name held in Phoenix, Arizona on 26-27 Jan. 1995. The symposium was sponsored by ASTM Committee on DIS on Soil and Rock. 

The symposium co-chairmen were: R. Mohan Srivastava, FSS International; Dr. Shahrokh Rouhani, Georgia Institute of Technology; Marc V. Cromer, Sandia National Laboratories; and A. Ivan Johnson, A. Ivan Johnson, Inc.

GIS, Environmental Modeling and Engineering

Description:

Spatial dimensions need to be properly captured if modeling and engineering techniques are to be successfully applied in addressing environmental problems. The links between the geographical information systems (GIS) that capture this data, simulation modeling, and engineering offer tremendous possibilities for building versatile support systems for managing the environment.
