When used together effectively, computer-aided design (CAD) and geospatial information systems (GIS) have a solid track record for streamlining decision making and reducing inefficiencies in the design, planning, and execution of critical operations and projects. And a growing number of engineering tasks in numerous fields—including design, architecture, construction, and asset management—now require the knowledge of many interrelated yet disconnected CAD/GIS tools and task-specific software.

Tab Article

A multidisciplinary resource delineating existing and emerging solutions for CAD/GIS integration issues, CAD and GIS Integration provides a clear understanding of the state of the art in this area of growing importance. It brings together in-depth descriptions of existing and emerging techniques, methodologies, and technologies to examine approaches that enable data and operations interoperability between CAD/GIS. Starting with a review of fundamental concepts and theories, the book :

* Addresses contemporary issues and challenges
* Provides a collection of helpful methodologies, techniques, and technologies for integrating CAD and GIS
* Presents balanced coverage of CAD and GIS technologies and applications
* Highlights emerging trends in CAD/GIS integration
* Explores the state-of-the-art in the application of CAD and GIS technologies, data, and operations for decision making
