This book explores key concepts in GIS such as geodesy, coordinate system or referencing system for referring the objects on earth’s surface are explained lucidly. It explains how the spatial data and globe is projected on to a flat surface to make a map through ‘Map Projection Methods’. The book also discusses how the three different types of geometry such as differential geometry, computational geometry and affine geometry help in analysis of spatial data. Also discussed are the mathematical formulations of how to compute physical parameters of geometric and spatial quantities using different spatial data.
