Book excerpt: GIS for Business and Service Planning Edited by Paul Longley,Graham Clarke The field of geographical information systems (GIS) is developingrapidly, finding applications in an ever-widening range ofcommercial contexts. This volume examines the practical use of GISfor business and service planning. It considers ways in which GISmay be customised to meet specific user requirements and tackle theapplied research challenges of the late 1990s. GIS for Business andService Planning: * introduces the management, analysis and modelling of informationwithin GIS and considers some of the basic problems and pitfallsthat can occur in practice * covers the major topics of geodemographics and how geographicalinformation can be manipulated and merged into business applicationdatabases * discusses the relative merits of customised versus proprietarysolutions to business application databases * examines the range of consultancy applications of GIS forbusiness using international case studies, assessing how recentapplications have benefited from research developments * critically assesses GIS in the market place and evaluatesdifferent GIS strategies GIS for Business and Service Planning is essential reading for GISprofessionals, marketeers, GIS students and management scientists.The other contributors: Peter Batey (University of Liverpool), MarkBirkin (GMAP), Peter Brown (University of Liverpool), Martin Clarke(GMAP), Paul Cresswell (SPA Marketing Systems), David Maguire (ESRIUS), David Martin (University of Southampton), Ian Masser(University of Sheffield), Stan Openshaw (University of Leeds),Nora Sherwood (GIS World) and Robin Waters (GeoInformationInternational).

Download or read book Strategic GIS Planning and Management in Local Government written by David A. Holdstock and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This "how-to" book on planning and managing GIS within local government describes and details the key components of a successful enterprise, sustainable and enduring GIS. It describes the strategic planning process an organization must undertake prior to GIS implementation. The heart of the book is the formula for success that offers a systematic methodology for examining and benchmarking a GIS initiative and the practical and repeatable strategy for success. There are many obstacles to successful GIS implementation, and unfortunately, the local government landscape is riddled with false starts, poorly planned implementations, and glorified mapping systems. This book documents the reason for failure and possible remedies to overcome the challenges to implementation. It discusses pathways to change, ways of improving organizational effectiveness and efficiency, and lays out the organizational approaches, management processes, and leadership actions that are required for GIS to become an indispensable part of an organization. This book is about aiming high, so you can consistently hit your mark by formulating goals and objectives that will tremendously influence the success of a GIS initiative. It details the factors crucial for building an enterprise GIS vision statement that includes governance, data and databases, procedures and workflow, GIS software, GIS training and education, and infrastructure, and how to develop performance measures related to the stated objectives of an organization. The book combines theory with real-world experience to offer guidance on the process of managing GIS implementation. Through key components, this book introduces a new way to think about GIS technology.

This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In August 1989, a Summer Institute was held at the Academie van Bouwkunst, the seventeenth century home of Amsterdam's School of Architecture, Town Planning and Landscape. The meeting brought together experts in Geographical Information Systems from throughout the world to address an international audience of planners. The contents of this book reflect many of the themes that were presented and discussed at the conference. The Summer Institute, let alone this volume, would not have been possible without the support of the International Association for the Development and Management of Existing and New Towns (INTNAIVN), the International Society of City and Regional Planners (ISoCaRP), The National Physical Planning Agency of the Netherlands (RPD) and the Berlage Studio. We wish to acknowledge the assistance provided by these organisations and by the various sponsors: The Ministry of Housing, Physical Planning and Environment, the Municipality of Amsterdam, Logisterion b.v., ESRI, UNISYS, MABON b.v., SPSS, PRIME Computer Inc., PANDATA. The provision of hardware facilities by the various computer companies allowed immensely valuable 'hands on' experience to be gained by all the participants.

Book excerpt: This book defines and discusses how the field of Enterprise Architecture (EA) can be incorporated into the design of Enterprise Geographic Information Systems (EGIS). The objective of EA is to develop a strategic plan that structures an organization’s resources (data, information, people, and assets) into one team that works together to achieve the company’s objectives in an efficient, agile, and adaptable way. It demonstrates how EA concepts can be incorporated within EGIS by improving the system’s efficiency and reliability. Through real-world examples and step-by-step explanations, the reader will reach a comfortable understanding of the theories and methods discussed in the book.
