tailieunhanh - GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Value, Pricing, Production, and Consumption

During the past 25 years of digital information development, industry-wide discussion has progressed from resolving technology issues for managing GI to establishing policy for accessing it, especially in the public sector. Geographic Information: Value, Pricing, Production and Consumption brings the producer and consumer arguments together, providing a fresh perspective on the emotional and territorial issues of IPR (intellectual property rights) protection and liberation. Unashamedly Euro-centric, the authors deliberately move the conceptual debates away from USA "Freedom of Information" principles into a consideration of the multi-national, multi-cultural, and socially complex information contexts of Europe, Africa, and Asia | GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Value Pricing Production and Consumption 2008 by Taylor Francis Group LLC GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION Value Pricing Production and Consumption Roger A.
