Abstract

Geo-information systems are widely applied in modern humanities. Such research studies are based on the use of geo-information technologies’ universal functionality; however, there is an objective shortage of the specialized GIS-analysis tools intended for historic, ethnographic, and other research. Geo-chronological tracking gives us an example of the methodological and technological analysis tool specifically developed for solving a given class of historical problems. This chapter is dedicated to the analysis of the principle capabilities and specifics of such a GIS tool.
