GIS Fundamentals: A First Text on Geographic Information Systems, Fifth Edition

I got this book to help study for the GISP. It is an excellent resource for all things GIS and takes you through pretty much everything related to the subject. Lots of great examples and illustrations. I keep it at work now as a reference.

Using this textbook for my Masters program. Explanations on difficult content are clear and the overall style of writing keeps you engaged but not too flashy or dramatic. Covers a lot of information regarding maps in general and GIS.

I've only read the first chapter but this book was a lot more informative than the book I read and used in my beginner GIS class in college. I hope to get more opportunities to read it this summer so that I'm properly prepared for my next GIS class.

Book is very thorough. However, it was a little too advanced for a beginner like me so I ended up returning it. It reads more like a college textbook.

I lived that this helped my friend Jean exactly what they needed to to access their class. This book was bound nicely. There weren't any grammatical it spelling errors found. The price was good as well. This is a great text book.

I bought this for the first class of a graduate program I am taking. It's very much a textbook, which means it very thorough. But it's a great companion to the course.

A lot of great material, but feels a little outdated. Got it for an intro GIS class and never opened it and still did well.

Very comprehensive info in the book for how little is paid for it. Dry and boring, but I learned a lot from it.
