Eriki de Man, W.H.
Establishing a geographical information system in relation to its use :a process of strategic choices - 1988 - International Journal of Geographic Information Systems 2(3) 1988, 245-261(17) .
The planning and establishment of a geographical information system relates to its context and intended use. GIS are a specialised type of information system, typically dealing with spatial data. This paper explores the environment of an envisaged GIS; the information utilisation system and the wider object system. The paper is in two parts. The first explores salient aspects in the planning and design process, the second suggests some guidance in this task. (from journal abstract)
