This book explains the fundamentals and intricacies of telegeoinformatics. The book is divided into three parts: Theories and Technologies; Integrated Data and Technologies; and Applications. These sections are divided into smaller contributed chapters, each of which addresses a topic crucial to the understanding of telegeoinformatics. This volume covers the concepts and technologies related to GIS and geoprocessing, remote sensing, the GPS, and wireless systems. It also explores the main issues of integrated data and technologies in LBC, LBS, mediated reality, and mobile augmented reality systems. The final part discusses applications of telegeoinformatics in emergency response, mobile inspection data collection, and ITS.

Reviews for Telegeoinformatics: Location-Based Computing and Services

"""This important and unique book will certainly further the understanding of and the application of telegeoinformatics in different environments such as urban planning, emergency response, real time tracking, wireless communication, and the exciting new research in augmented reality. A very readable book. Summing Up: Recommended."" - CHOICE, Nov. 2004, Vol. 42, No. 3 ""This book covers nearly every aspect of location-based computing and services, and is the most comprehensive one of its kind produced hither-to…the book is well-organized and is detailed in its approach. With the rapid development of LBC and LBCS, the reviewer has no doubt that this book will be well-received…Telegeoinformatics has a reasonably good opportunity to scale great heights. This book can serve as a starting point for those interested in such a rapidly growing field."" - Geomatica, Vol. 59, No. 1, 2005 ""It constitutes a concise reference on several core topics for LBS, such as positioning systems, wireless communication, and augmented reality; it provides valuable insights into some of the applications that increasingly may depend on LBS; and it makes a substantial contribution to the continuing development of this fast-moving topic."" -Matt Duckham, Computers & Geosciences, 2005"
