WebGIS and Geospatial Technologies for Landscape Education on Personalized Learning Contexts

The value of landscape, as part of collective heritage, can be acquired by geographic information systems (GIS) due to the multilayer approach of the spatial configuration. Proficiency in geospatial technologies to collect, process, analyze, interpret, visualize, and communicate geographic informati...
