520 |a "From the Ring of Fire to the Fertile Crescent, this book shows through its maps and stories how a growing GIS community is facing down humanity's big challenges.

Its message arises from a deep human sense of place and conviction that this collaborative approach can help us confront climate change, hunger, water scarcity, inequity, biodiversity loss, and issues large and small in our everyday lives" --Back cover.
