Geoai and Human Geography: The Dawn of a New Spatial Intelligence Era
暫譯: 地理人工智慧與人文地理：新空間智慧時代的曙光

本卷概述了地理空間人工智慧（GeoAI）如何重塑我們對人與地之理解的全面旅程。將傳統地理研究與人工智慧技術相結合，提供了一個整體視角，展示了重新定義人文地理的數位工具和先進演算法。在二十八章中，本書記錄了地理思想演變至GeoAI時代的過程。創新的方法論——從可解釋的空間分析和自然語言處理到以人為中心的計算機視覺和高效能計算——揭示了超越傳統方法的新模式和關係。每一篇貢獻都突顯了數據處理的技術進步以及對文化、經濟、政治、健康和城市研究的豐富視角。展示在災害管理、氣候變遷適應和城市規劃等多樣應用中的GeoAI，顯示了其變革潛力。本書還探討了倫理、可持續性和社會挑戰，強調技術創新必須服務於現實世界的影響和包容性。這本書對於研究人員、學生和實務工作者而言都是理想的選擇，邀請您探索技術與人類經驗交匯處的新前沿。
