Features: Land Information Systems (LIS) are an important component of China's informatization development, with many significant theories, methods, and practical applications worth exploring and summarizing. In recent years, with the advancement of land science, surveying and mapping science, and information technology, the development and application of LIS in China have achieved fruitful results, producing a series of practical LIS. These have made important contributions to the rational utilization and management of land resources, the development and improvement of LIS development theories and technologies. This book is divided into eleven chapters, with the theory, methods, and practice of LIS as its main thread, comprehensively introducing the fundamental theories and methods of LIS, the collection, input, analysis, processing, and output of land information, as well as the analysis, design, and application of LIS. The book strives to integrate the latest research findings from related fields such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), software development, and land management into traditional LIS theories and methods, closely linking with the current major information system engineering practices in China to provide guidance for the construction and application of LIS. The chapters are logically connected and well-organized, with standardized terminology. The content is rich and appropriately balanced among theory, methods, and practice. This book can serve as a textbook or primary reference for undergraduate and graduate students in land resource management, GIS, and related fields; as a reference for educators and researchers in universities and research institutions engaged in land resource management, land use planning, and GIS applications; and as a practical toolbook for personnel in land resource management systems.
