Hydraulic Modeling and GIS

Ekalilynadia Kamaruzzaman — Fri, 07 Aug 2020 03:28:38 +0000

GIS and hydraulic modeling are complementary technologies. By integrating them with each other, water utility companies can reap substantial time and cost savings. A well-designed integration of the two systems provides ready access to mission-critical data. As a result, risk-of-failure analysis, repair and replacement, capacity assessment, capital improvement planning, and numerous other water utility applications run more efficiently and more effectively. “Hydraulic Modeling and GIS “identifies the challenges that must be navigated and offers best practices for achieving an integration that will be sustainable over the long term.”

Urban Policy and the Census

Ekalilynadia Kamaruzzaman — Fri, 07 Aug 2020 03:27:35 +0000

Urban Policy and the Census helps researchers and policy analysts gain an integrated understanding of census data and other relevant policy data sources, their strengths and limitations, and how best to use this data in policy research. Researchers will be able to critically assess decennial census and the American Community Survey data, which can be the starting point for spatial analysis for realistic policy planning and decision-making. The book shows that evidence-based policy is effective only when the evidence is sound and used appropriately. It provides guidance for analyzing demographic and social trends, economic trends, housing circumstances, and transportation issues.

Notes & Comments on Composition of Terrestrial & Celestial Maps

Ekalilynadia Kamaruzzaman — Fri, 07 Aug 2020 03:21:38 +0000

Notes and Comments on the Composition of Terrestrial and Celestial Maps is an historically significant work on modern map projections and their mathematical underpinnings. The original German edition introduced several distinct map projections still in use today and revealed the cartographic genius of author J.H. Lambert (1728-1777). In 1972, on the 200th anniversary of this seminal work, noted geographer Waldo R. Tobler published an English translation of Lambert’s writings, but it has been unavailable for several years. This new edition of the translation includes an expanded preface and reference section and a new biographical sketch of J.H. Lambert.
