Spatial Data Science will show GIS scientists and practitioners how to add and use new analytical methods from Data Science in their existing GIS platforms. By explaining how the spatial domain can provide many of the building blocks, it's critical for transforming data into information, knowledge, and solutions. This book is for those using or studying GIS and the computer scientists, engineers, statisticians, and information and library scientists leading the development and deployment of Data Science. Spatial Data Science consists of six chapters. The first chapter introduces the book and describes its two complementary goals. The first goal is to show spatial scientists and practitioners how they can enhance their current use of geographic information systems (GIS), Global Positioning System (GPS), and remote sensing by adding and using geospatial Big Data and Data Science methods to extend their existing toolboxes. The second goal is to show data scientists how they can better realize the potential of Big Data and Data Science by using spatial perspectives and geospatial technologies to discover new knowledge.
