GIS Online is a comprehensive guide for businesses, government agencies, nonprofit organizations, educational institutions, and individuals who want to build a Web site based on GIS and mapping technology, or who simply want to include maps on their sites. The book describes the concepts of distributed geographic information (DGI), the integration of GIS and maps with the Internet, and data sharing, and provides guidance through the planning, development, and maintenance of an effective site.

Revered as much as one's guitar, the Fender amplifier gets its due in this full-color, richly illustrated book.

An accompanying CD features more than 50 tracks that make terms and topics come alive.

Synopsis for “The Life We Live” “The life we Live, a succinctly written story, puts you on the scene with Gatty, Black, JR, and B-Jah, Comin live from the Virgin Islands, strap yourself in and take a vivid ride with four adolescent thugs as they hustle, rob, and kill because of the life they live. A real good book check it out!” -Jakari Ford, author of “It cost to be the Boss” -Wakulla, Work Camp “The Life We Live is the best book I read all year, B-Jah, you really did your thing, I see you goin places in the game. Everyone have to check it out! It’s a page turner that will keep you wonderin whats gonna happen next.” -Demetrius Walker, author of “Set Tripping” -Wakulla, Work Camp “Menh, if it was up to me I’d say bump a Synopsis, but like Nino said –It’s bigger than B-Jah kyat. Them folks want a synopsis so a synop it is. Well, the story of “_ e Life We Life,” which is told through the eyes of B-Jah, unfolds with a deadly bank robbery; spins back in time showin the introduction of Black, JR, Gatty, and B-Jah into grimy blood stain streets of ST.Thomas, then gives you a twistin conclusion, one that leaves you wantin more. Jakari described the story as “Succinctly written,” (What ever that means) and Demetrius said it was “the best book I read all year,” But I say – Just read the book!” -B-Jah Kyat, author of “Million Dollar Lie” -Wakulla, Work Camp

Sustainable management of natural resources is an urgent need, given the changing climatic conditions of Earth systems. The ability to monitor natural resources precisely and accurately is increasingly important. New and advanced remote sensing tools and techniques are continually being developed to monitor and manage natural resources in an effective way. Remote sensing technology uses electromagnetic sensors to record, measure and monitor even small variations in natural resources. The addition of new remote sensing datasets, processing techniques and software makes remote sensing an exact and cost-effective tool and technology for natural resource monitoring and management. Advances in Remote Sensing for Natural Resources Monitoring provides a detailed overview of the potential applications of advanced satellite data in natural resource monitoring. The book determines how environmental and - ecological knowledge and satellite-based information can be effectively combined to address a wide array of current natural resource management needs. Each chapter covers different aspects of remote sensing approach to monitor the natural resources effectively, to provide a platform for decision and policy. This important work: Provides comprehensive coverage of advances and applications of remote sensing in natural resources monitoring Includes new and emerging approaches for resource monitoring with case studies Covers different aspects of forest, water, soil- land resources, and agriculture Provides exemplary illustration of themes such as glaciers, surface runoff, ground water potential and soil moisture content with temporal analysis Covers blue carbon, seawater intrusion, playa wetlands, and wetland inundation with case studies Showcases disaster studies such as floods, tsunami, showing where remote sensing technologies have been used This edited book is the first volume of the book series Advances in Remote Sensing for Earth Observation.
