Světoznámý geoinformatik prof. M. F. Goodchild vystoupí 16. května od 14:00 hodin v aule Aula Přírodovědecké fakulty Masarykovy univerzity (Kotlářská 2, Brno) s přednáškou na téma SPACE, PLACE, AND GIS. Všichni příznivci geoinformatiky jsou srdečně zváni!
Abstract:
GIS is able to address a remarkably broad set of queries by storing the locations and attributes of features on the surface of the Earth, and by using standard coordinate systems to measure locations. But humans are not normally familiar with coordinates, and do not use them in their day-to-day activities. Instead humans tend to think and talk in terms of place names and their associations. I explore the potential for a place-based technology that would be closer to how humans think about the geographic world.
