ISO standards for geographic information

The book addresses scientists and technical experts who have already some background knowledge in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and who want to know more about standardisation in GIS, in particular, the role of the ISO. The authors also meet the needs of programmers who are going to implement ISO 19100 standards and who need a better understanding of the overall structure of the standards. Last, but not least, this richly illustrated book will help readers to better understand the rather abstract ISO documents.
