Computing Geographically

Grab your map and your laptop: Computing Geographically by David O’Sullivan reframes how we think about location, data and decision-making in a world driven by spatial intelligence. Written for practitioners and learners alike, this book bridges the gap between theory and real-world geospatial computing.

From the first page you’ll find clear explanations of geocomputation principles, practical methods for handling spatial data, and robust strategies for integrating GIS, remote sensing, and spatial statistics. The text guides you through working with vector and raster data, designing spatial algorithms, and deploying location-aware applications — all illustrated with examples relevant to urban planning, environmental monitoring, transportation, and public-health mapping.

What makes this title essential is its focus on solving geographic problems at every scale. Readers will gain hands-on insight into spatial data pipelines, map generalization, geoprocessing efficiency, and the ethical challenges of location intelligence. Whether you’re a GIS analyst, data scientist, planner, or student, the book sharpens your ability to turn maps into actionable insight.

Practical, authoritative and easy to navigate, Computing Geographically is designed to improve your workflow and deepen your geographic thinking. Add it to your professional library to enhance spatial analysis skills, streamline geospatial projects, and make better location-based decisions.
