Create a flyer for "Geocomputation"

Great starting textbook for 3rd year students in Geography

This book is written assuming some exposure to modeling and displaying geo-referenced data in engineering and/or geography context. It would work well for advanced undergraduates in geography or master's level students in statistics, engineering, or geography.

This book provides up-to-date examples of geocomputation tools, methods and visualization ways. Authors provides several practical examples for researchers and student of geography or GIS. Current improvements in GIS and geocomputation involves open source GIS programs and new ways to produce spatial data. All examples and method descriptions provide good starting point to the world of current state of geocomputation.

short but comprehensive overview of contemporary geo-spatial problems and solutions
very useful are the practical examples of implementation

This is a very accessible text that helps students to understand the types of practical choices that need to be made when pursuing a geo-computational analysis. The geodemographics chapter was particularly good in talking the reader through the problem in a way that would make sense to anyone with modest maths while allowing them to feel like they could undertake a similar analysis for themselves. I wasn't sure what to expect, but it is really a great reference textbook for students (and lecturers!)

This is a very good text book. I particularly like that it relies on R as a software rather than other GIS software which is expensive and may not be available on university campuses. The textbook is an essential reading for students that would like to map inter-ethnic conflict as part of their research project on my course Race, Ethnicity and Migration. More and more students should be actively encouraged to use geocomputational techniques as they present a nice visualization of complex problems.
