GIScience Theory Based Assessment of Spatial Disparity of Geodetic Control Points Location

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
Geodetic networks provide a spatial reference framework for the positioning of any geographical feature in a common and consistent way. An even spatial distribution of geodetic control points assures good quality for subordinate surveys in mapping ...

Reimagining GIScience for relational spaces [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Geographies / Géographies canadiennes, 2017
A mismatch between largely absolute Newtonian models of space in GIScience and the relational spaces of critical human geography has contributed to mutual disinterest between the fields. Critical GIS has offered an intellectual critique of GIScience without substantially altering how particular key geographical concepts are expressed in data structures.

Revisiting the Role of Place in Geographic Information Science

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2018
Although place-based investigations into human phenomena have been widely conducted in the social sciences over the last decades, this notion has only recently transgressed into Geographic Information Science (GIScience). Such a place-based GIS comprises
