EnviroGIS: Geographic Information Systems in Environmental Analysis is a comprehensive and timely textbook that provides a foundation for those considering further research in GIS, environmental sciences, or geosciences. It offers a thorough understanding of how to initiate a GIS course in Geosciences, introducing the importance of GIS by taking a step-by-step approach for delineating the study area. This book provides diverse ideas, data, and practical examples for both replication and reference to students, scientists, and lecturers engaging with GIS and environmental science, particularly areas focused on Earth Surface Processes using tools like ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, Terrset/Idrissi, Google Earth Engine, R, and Pix4D.
In the first part, the textbook delineates the importance of GIS. Moving on, in the second part it focuses on the most relevant topics in environmental analysis. It outlines the preparation of seminars related to changing scales, soil, plant, and catchment dynamic processes, such as erosion and interpolations. Covering topics such as data mining, and connectivity processes, EnviroGIS highlights the way in which Artificial Intelligence enables the creation of accurate forecasts of challenging-to-predict Earth surface processes. Additionally, the biosphere is delved into to show how GIS courses assess fauna and vegetation within natural or human ecosystems. The final part of the book is centered on specific cases, considering different GIS data formats including shapefiles, multilayer projects, and recent natural hazards or disasters, such as volcanic eruptions or hillslope degradation due to human activities.
