Information Systems built using standard-based distributed services have become the default computing paradigm adopted by the geospatial community to build Geospatial Information Infrastructures. There are many aspects to consider in order to improve the discovery of geospatial resources. The efficiency of discovery is determinant to deploy successful applications in distributed environments where standard-based components allow users to share and reuse resources more effectively. Discovery of Geospatial Resources: Methodologies, Technologies, and Emergent Applications aims to provide relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research finding. This reference is written for professionals who want to improve the understanding of geospatial discovery methodologies and technologies, as well as techniques to design and deploy geospatial resources in Information Infrastructures.
