gis/7df02b2e_0549.txt | This sub-chapter gives an overview of fundamental GIS methods for performing basic spatial analysis with feature data. Nevertheless, depending on the data involved and the workflow incorporating these methods, they can deliver highly valuable output. The process of manipulating geodata is called geoprocessing. To autom... |
gis/25528_8bd824e2d7063c5f_268.txt | In response, in a second generation of studies, several frameworks have been proposed and tested to advance scholarship on barriers to adaptation (Eisenack and Stecker, 2012; Barnett et al., 2015; Lehmann et al., 2015; Bisaro and Hinkel, 2016). A frequently used framework was developed by Moser and Ekstrom (2010) who i... |
