Critical risk research / Matthew B. Kearnes
Titre : Critical risk research : practices, politics, and ethics Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Matthew B. Kearnes, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef ; Francisco Reto Klauser, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef ; Stuart N. Lane, Directeur de publication, rédacteur en chef Editeur : Chichester : Wiley-Blackwell Année de publication : 2012 Importance : 1 vol. (XI-240 p.) Présentation : ill., cartes Format : 25 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-470-97487-2 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Critical risk research Index. décimale : 551 Résumé : Risk Research: Practices, Politics and Ethics offers acollection of essays, written by a wide variety of internationalresearchers in risk research, about what it means to do riskresearch, and about how and with what effects riskresearch is practiced, articulated and exploited.
This approach is based upon the core assumption that: to make adifference in the study of risk, we must move beyond what weusually do, challenging the core assumptions, scientific, economicand social, about how we study, frame, exploit and govern risk.Hence, through a series of essays, the book aims to challenge thecurrent ways in which risk–problems are approached and presented,both conceptually by academics and through the framings that areencoded in the technologies and socio–political and institutionalpractices used to manage risk.
In addressing these questions, the book does not attempt tooffer a model of how risk research ′should′ be done. Rather, thebook provides, through illustration, a challenge to the ways inwhich risk research is framed as ′problem–solving.′ The book′sultimate objective aims to increase critical debate betweendifferent disciplines, approaches, concepts and problems.Critical risk research : practices, politics, and ethics [texte imprimé] / Matthew B.

Titre : Interacting with Geospatial Technologies Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mordechai (Muki) Haklay, Auteur Editeur : Chichester : Wiley-Blackwell Année de publication : 2010 Importance : 296 p. Format : 25 x 17 cm. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-470-99824-3 Langues : Français (fre) Mots-clés : Interacting Geospatial Technologies Résumé : This book provides an introduction to HCI and usability aspects of Geographical Information Systems and Science. Its aim is to introduce the principles of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI); to discuss the special usability aspects of GIS which designers and developers need to take into account when developing such systems; and to offer a set of tried and tested frameworks, matrices and techniques that can be used within GIS projects.
Geographical Information Systems and other applications of computerised mapping have gained popularity in recent years. Today, computer-based maps are common on the World Wide Web, mobile phones, satellite navigation systems and in various desktop computing packages. The more sophisticated packages that allow the manipulation and analysis of geographical information are used in location decisions of new businesses, for public service delivery for planning decisions by local and central government. Many more applications exist and some estimate the number of people across the world that are using GIS in their daily work at several millions. However, many applications of GIS are hard to learn and to master. This is understandable, as until quite recently, the main focus of software vendors in the area of GIS was on the delivery of basic functionality and development of methods to present and manipulate geographical information using the available computing resources. As a result, little attention was paid to usability aspects of GIS. This is evident in many public and private systems where the terminology, conceptual design and structure are all centred around the engineering of GIS and not on the needs and concepts that are familiar to the user.
This book covers a range of topics from the cognitive models of geographical representation, to interface design. It will provide the reader with frameworks and techniques that can be used and description of case studies in which these techniques have been used for computer mapping application.Interacting with Geospatial Technologies [texte imprimé] / Mordechai (Muki) Haklay, Auteur . - Chichester : Wiley-Blackwell, 2010 . - 296 p. ; 25 x 17 cm.
