omatics and geoinformatics include and rely heavily upon the theory and practical implications of geodesy. geography and earth science increasingly rely on digital spatial data acquired from remotely sensed images analyzed by geographical information systems (gis),photo interpretation of aerial photographs, and web mining. geoinformatics combines geospatial analysis and modeling, development of geospatial databases, information systems design, human-computer interaction and both wired and wireless networking technologies. geoinformatics uses geocomputation and geovisualization for analyzing geoinformation. branches of geoinformatics include: cartography, geodesy, global navigation satellite systems, photogrammetry, remote sensing, spatial analysis, navigation, webmapping. cartography cartography from greek "papyrus, sheet of paper, map"; and "write") is the study and practice of making maps. cartography combines science, aesthetics, and technique. the fundamental objectives of traditional cartography are to: · set the map's agenda and select traits of the object to be mapped. this is the concern of map editing. traits may be physical, such as …
