Résumé
The use of GIS, and its application for solving
environmental problems, is growing rapidly. This powerful
set of tools can be used to great affect in hydrological
modeling, environment and habitat assessments, ecosystem
studies, monitoring of wetlands and forested watersheds,
urban studies, agricultural impact assessment and much
more.GIS for Water Resources and Watershed Management
examines the fundamentals, demonstrates new approaches,
techniques and methods, and provides examples of real
applications. It presents the basic concepts, and shows how
to acquire the critical information needed to plan and
implement GIS studies, and to develop practical solutions
for environmental management and problem solving.Features:
