Many ideas have been borrowed from other disciplines and the success of modeling was questioned in the 1970s and 1980s. The advent of geographical information systems (GIS) has re-focused modeling and there are a number of guidelines proposed for the future of the model in geography. | Publication Type: | Entry In Reference Work | Source of Publication: | Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS) | Publisher: | United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) | Place of Publication: | Oxford, United Kingdom | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 049999 Earth Sciences not elsewhere classified | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 960699 Environmental and Natural Resource Evaluation not elsewhere classified | HERDC Category Description: | N Entry In Reference Work | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.eolss.net/Sample-Chapters/C01/E6-14-04-05.pdf http://www.eolss.net/E6-14-toc.aspx |
