Geographic Information on the World Wide Web
Internet-based mapping applications are changing the way
that people use and manage geographic information. Here are 12 fascinating
case studies that reveal how public and private organizations from around
the world use Web-based geographic information systems (GIS) to improve
customer service, increase employee efficiency, and inform the community
at large.
Easy-to-read and richly illustrated,
Serving Maps on the Internet is a nontechnical introduction to the
why and how of "map-enabled" Web sites. It's a must read for Web designers
and organizations with Internet or intranet exposure. Case studies
include:
- U.S. Geological Survey
- National Association of Realtors
- Caltrans
- National Ocean Service
- Southern California Gas Company
- Tantalus Communications
- Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport
- Cabarrus County, North Carolina

- Edison International
The book is illustrated in full color and comes with a
companion CD–ROM that includes a working copy of ArcExplorer, ESRI's
easy-to-use GIS data viewer, a GIS tutorial, and links to hundreds of
map-enabled Web sites and data repositories.
