This book presents a new type of modeling environment where users
interact with geospatial simulations using 3D physical models of
studied landscapes. Multiple users can alter the physical model
by hand during scanning, thereby providing input for simulation
of geophysical processes in this setting.

The authors have developed innovative techniques and software
that couple this hardware with open source GRASS GIS, making the
system instantly applicable to a wide range of modeling and
design problems. Since no other literature on this topic is
available, this Book fills a gap for this new technology that
continues to grow.

Tangible Modeling with Open Source GIS will appeal to
advanced-level students studying geospatial science, computer
science and earth science such as landscape architecture
and natural resources. It will also benefit researchers and
professionals working in geospatial modeling applications,
computer graphics, hazard risk management, hydrology, solar
energy, coastal and fluvial flooding, fire spread, landscape,
park design and computer games.
