Abstract
This edited collection, as a continuation of the “Geotechnologies and Environment” series, delves into the applications of geotechnologies for researchers, academics and end users interested in the real-world applications of geospatial technologies. While the previous two volumes focused predominately on the urban environment, particularly planning and socioeconomic applications (Gatrell and Jensen 2009) and urban hazards and disaster analysis (Showalter and Lu 2010), this volume’s focus is more aligned with aspects of the physical environment, and the role environmental management and natural resource practices (and to an extent its associated policies) impact physical landscapes and human-environment interfaces.
