The integration of remote sensing and geographic information systems in Remote sensing for resources development and environmental management. Volume 3.
Describes several integration problems and the Landsat Digital Image Analysis System used at the Canada Centre for Remote Sensing. Experiments have been conducted integrating a forestry geographic information system for the province of British
Columbia. Non algorithmic solutions which use symbolic reasoning an required and a brief description of expert systems for this integration is given.

to the forefront together with linguists. After this, Slovenian geographers were involved in this topic to various extents. In the past decades a leading role has been assumed by certain geographers, who seek to integrate Slovenian toponymy within modern trends
Slovenian geographers have dealt with geographical names for a long time. In the early phase this topic was addressed by politicians, missionaries, and polymaths. In the nineteenth century the first educated Slovenian geographers came

Increasing the integrity of cognitive mapping research: appraising conceptual schemata of environment-behaviour interaction
, societal and cultural contexts. The schema explicitly illustrates how geographical and psychological theory and practice can be combined to provide an integrative framework for cognitive mapping research.
These schemata have remained conceptually weak in many cases. Ways to increase the integrity of cognitive mapping research are examined. A theory is provided which is framed in cognition and human agency, and which is reactive to environmental

Environment, society and geographical organization: the problem of integral knowledge
There is an imbalance between the search for partial and relatively simple phenomena and the search for comprehensive complexes. The development of our integral knowledge can be supported by geography which is a discipline studying complex systems
Transportation as a factor of trans-border connection and integration of South Eastern Europe and the rest of Europe

The process of integration into the European Community through the formation of cross-border regions and transport corridors makes the state border gradually defunct, decreasing their barrier role. Still the benefits of opening the borders
with the stress on its integration function cannot be achieved without synchronized transport development. For SEE countries, the top priority project would be the formation of the pan-European transport corridors. Six of ten corridors pass through the territory
of South Eastern Europe. The formation of this network has a sits ultimate goal functional interregional integration with simplified and accelerated transport lines. - (IfL)

In this report, the acronym GIS refers to geographical information science, reflecting the GIS paradigm. This article is a review of GIS activities for the year of 1996 only. 4 specialist areas are identified and discussed in turn : geosciences
, land use and habitat suitability, spatial variation, integration.

Basic principles in the application of geomorphology in hydrocarbon research in Geographical essays in Hungary.
The present landforms are merely a mirror image of a sequence of paleogeographical developments. Hydrocarbon storing structural phenomena are identified from a complex landscape-morphogenetic integration of satellite information. (DLO).
Some theoretical problems concerning the study of economic regions in Geographical essays in Hungary.
The concept of the economic region is defined. Its characteristics are the production profile/specialization/, complexity, the regional production complexes and the relationship between sectoral and integrated regions. (DLO).
