Spatial information users and providers are increasingly concerned
about the legal implications relating to the use and dissemination
of geographic information for which there are no right or wrong
methods of practice, and no one source of information. This book
fills the gap by addressing key issues in contract law,
intellectual property law, rights and responsabilities and
liability as they relate to the GI community.
- The first book to interpret the law relating to GI Science and outline its implications to a general readership
- Provides a comprehensive discourse in law and GI Science irrespective of jurisdiction
- Offers a global perspective throughout with case materials coming from the UK, North America, the EU and Australasia
