Computer science provides a powerful tool that was virtually unknown three generations ago. Some of the classical fields of knowledge are geodesy (surveying), cartography, and geography. Electronics have revolutionized geodetic methods. Cartography has faced the dominance of the computer that results in simplified cartographic products. All three fields make use of basic components such as the Internet and databases. The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is organized in three parts, Basics, Geographic Information and Applications. Some parts of the basics belong to the larger field of computer science. However, the reader gets a comprehensive view on geographic information because the topics selected from computer science have a close relation to geographic information. The Springer Handbook of Geographic Information is written for scientists at universities and industry as well as advanced and PhD students.

The book addresses scientists and technical experts who have already some background knowledge in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and who want to know more about standardisation in GIS, in particular, the role of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). In addition, the monograph meets the needs of programmers who are involved in implementing ISO 19100 standards and who need a better understanding of the overall structure of the standards. Last, but not least, this richly illustrated book helps readers to better understand the rather abstract ISO documents.

Razas De Caballos Del Mundo Wolfgang Kresse En este libro se describen alrededor de 320 razas de caballos, casi todas con fotografía, y en orden alfabético. La descripción detallada de cada raza incluye las características, distribución, aptitudes e historia de la cría del caballo. En la primera parte del libro se trata de

Die bekannten Pferderassen wie Araber, Trakehner, Haflinger etc. sind in der Fachliteratur eingehend beschrieben. Doch wer kennt schon Sumbawa Pony, Miquelonnais oder Kiger Mustang? Pferde und Ponys werden in einer erstaunlichen Vielfalt an Farben, Grössen und Exterieurtypen in allen Erdteilen gehalten und gezüchtet. Je nach Verwendungszweck sind im Laufe der Jahrtausende die unterschiedlichsten Vollblut-, Warmblut-, Kaltblut- und Kleinpferderassen entstanden. Wieviele Rassen es heute tatsächlich gibt, kann kaum jemand exakt beziffern.
