Zorica Nedovic-Budic; Joep Crompvoets; Yola Georgiadou (eds.), Spatial Data Infrastructures in Context: North and South. CRC Press. 2011. 288 pp.

What can we learn from spatial data infrastructures in the North and South? Drawing comparisons and lessons from both hemispheres, the book uncovers the nuances of using SDIs in a variety of cultural, societal, and institutional contexts. Delivering cutting-edge research that is theory-based and empirically-tested, the international contributors focus on local and regional levels where SDIs are applied in urban planning, administration, and management.
