Geographical information is first defined as an abstraction of primitive tuples linking geographical locations to general descriptors. Geographical concepts originale in the human mind, and are instantiated in geographical information. Geographical information technologies apply digital methods to geographical information. Finally, geographical information science is defined as the set of basic research issues arising from these technologies. Three motivations are presented for research in this area: scientific, technological, and societal. Within the project, geographical information science is structured by a three-part framework that includes cognitive, computational, and societal issues. The paper ends with an introduction to these three parts, which define the infrastructure of the project and are discussed at length by the subsequent three papers.

Cognitive models of geographical space / David M. Mark in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 13 n° 8 (december 1999)

Tversky, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : pp 747 - 774 Note générale : Bibliographie 10 pages Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Cartographie [Termes IGN] cartologie [Termes IGN] espace géographique [Termes IGN] modèle cognitif [Termes IGN] représentation mentale spatiale [Termes IGN] système d'information géographique Résumé : (Auteur) This paper reviews research in geographical cognition that provides part of the theoretical foundation of geographical information science. Freestanding research streams in cognitive science, behavioural geography, and cartography converged in the last decade or so with work on theoretical foundations for geographical information systems to produce a coherent research community that advances geographical information science, geographical information systems, and the contributing fields and disciplines. Then, we review three high-priority research areas that are the topics for research initiatives within the NCGIA's Project Varenius. Other topics consider but ranked less important at this time are also reviewed.

Progress in computational methods for representing geographical concepts / Max J. Egenhofer in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 13 n° 8 (december 1999)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of geographical information science IJGIS > vol 13 n° 8 (december 1999) . - pp 775 - 796 Titre : Progress in computational methods for representing geographical concepts Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Max J. Egenhofer, Auteur ; J. Glasgow, Auteur ; Oliver Günther, Auteur ; John R. Herring, Auteur ; Donna J. Peuquet, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : pp 775 - 796 Note générale : Bibliographie 7 pages Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Information géographique [Termes IGN] données localisées [Termes IGN] langage de requête [Termes IGN] modèle conceptuel de données [Termes IGN] modélisation [Termes IGN] système d'information géographique Résumé : (Auteur) Over the past ten years, a subfield of GIScience bas been recognized that addresses the linkage between human thought regarding geographical space, and the mechanisms for implementing these concepts in computational models. This research area has developped an identity through a series of successful international conferences and the establishment of a journal. It bas also been cornplemented through community activities such as international standardisation efforts and GIS interoperability. Historically much of the advancement in computational methods has occurred at -or close to- the implementation level, as exemplified by attention to the development of spatial access rnethods. Significant progress has been made at the levels of spatial data models and spatial query languages, although we note the lack of a comprehensive theoretical framework comparable to the relational data model in database management systems. The difficult problems that need future research efforts are at the highly abstract lever of capturing semantics of geographical information. A cognitive motivation is most promising as it shapes the focus on the users' needs and points of view, rather than on efficiency as in the case of a bottom-up system design. We also identify the need for new research in fields, models of qualitative spatial information, temporal aspects, knowledge discovery, and the integration of GIS with database management systems.

Geographies of the information society / E. Sheppard in International journal of geographical information science IJGIS, vol 13 n° 8 (december 1999)  

Public [article]  inInternational journal of geographical information science IJGIS > vol 13 n° 8 (december 1999) . - pp 797 - 823 Titre : Geographies of the information society Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : E. Sheppard, Auteur ; Helen Couclelis, Auteur ; S. Graham, Auteur ; J.W. Harrington, Auteur ; Harlan J. Onsrud, Auteur Année de publication : 1999 Article en page(s) : pp 797 - 823 Note générale : Bibliographie 6 pages Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Société de l'information [Termes IGN] information géographique [Termes IGN] ontologie [Termes IGN] société de l'information Résumé : (Auteur) This article presents the Varenius perspective on the societal dimensions of geographical information technologies and the geographical dimensions of information technologies in general, and puts them in the context of the research literature of the last ten years. The central themes examined are : theoretical perspectives on the societal implications of geographical information technologies ; the changing significance of key geographical concepts in the information age ; and societal aspects of the practical application of geographical information technologies. The relationships between these themes and three NCGIA Varenius research initiatives on geographies of the information society are summarized, and some directions for future research in this broad area are outlined.
