Spatial Uncertainty in Ecology: Implications for Remote Sensing and GIS Applications

by Carolyn T. Hunsaker (Editor), Michael F. Goodchild (Editor), Mark A. Friedl (Editor)

This is one of the first books to take an ecological perspective on uncertainty in spatial data. It applies principles and techniques from geography and other disciplines to ecological research, and thus delivers the tools of cartography, cognition, spatial statistics, remote sensing and computer sciences by way of spatial data. After describing the uses of such data in ecological research, the authors discuss how to account for the effects of uncertainty in various methods of analysis.
