2. Computer cartography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cartography

   Computer cartography (also called digital cartography) is the art, science, and technology of making and using maps with a computer. [1][2][3] This technology represents a paradigm shift in how maps are produced, but is still fundamentally a subset of traditional cartography. [3][4] The primary function of this technology is to produce maps ...

   Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. The Harvard Laboratory for Computer Graphics and Spatial Analysis (1965 to 1991) pioneered early cartographic and architectural computer applications that led to integrated geographic information systems (GIS). [1] Some of the Laboratory's influential programs included SYMAP, SYMVU, GRID, CALFORM, and POLYVRT.

4. Geographic information system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_Information_System

   A geographic information system (GIS) consists of integrated computer hardware and software that store, manage, analyze, edit, output, and visualize geographic data. [1][2] Much of this often happens within a spatial database; however, this is not essential to meet the definition of a GIS. [1] In a broader sense, one may consider such a system ...

5. Geoinformatics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoinformatics

   Geoinformatics combines geospatial analysis and modeling, development of geospatial databases, information systems design, human-computer interaction and both wired and wireless networking technologies. Geoinformatics uses geocomputation and geovisualization for analyzing geoinformation. Areas related to geoinformatics include: Cartography.

6. Geographic information science - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_information_science

   Geographic Information Science (GIScience) is the basic research field that seeks to redefine geographic concepts and their use in the context of geographic information systems. GIScience also examines the impacts of GIS on individuals and society, and the influences of society on GIS. GIScience re-examines some of the most fundamental themes ...
