“…'s, 1964 affective taxonomy), and skilled movements and non‐discursive communication (from Harrow's, 1972 psychomotor taxonomy)—are considered complex in their respective taxonomies, GIS can aid their execution in non‐demanding mental and physical ways. This is possible with naive GISystems (Egenhofer & Mark, 1995; Hamerlinck, 2015) that afford a more intuitive user experience (UX).…”

The current GIS education framework has gaps, undervalued elements, and decentralized components that make it difficult to effectively relate, teach, learn, and assess learning key constructs within and across disciplines. Building upon critical synthesis, analysis, and extension of multidisciplinary literature, we develop a student‐centered framework that places the 2D learning GIS space within the broader 3D educational space defined by cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains of learning. The modalities of GIS learning are discussed in the contexts of the “circle of GIS thinking,” “triangle of GIS practice,” and “triangle of affective GIS.” The framework suggests that well‐rounded GIS individuals possess hard and soft (non‐)geospatial knowledge, skills, and abilities gained through learning by thinking, doing, and feeling. It is coherent, intuitive, extensible, and in sync with modern GIS perspectives and knowledge, and multimodal ways of mastering this subject. We demonstrate how the framework informs design and content considerations for hybrid minds‐on, hands‐on, and “body‐on” classroom assessments that mirror the nature of GIS. We conclude that the framework shows considerable potential to facilitate consistent and persistent delivery of quality GIS education.

“…The digital globe developments brought in tiled imagery into highly interactive 2D and 3D geo-browsers. While initially focused on viewing, the digital globe geo-browsers have been developed to include geospatial data editing, integration from various sources and basic GIS queries [125][126][127]. Examples related to advanced virtual globes include the analysis of Earthquake Signal Precursors [128], visualization and analysis of doxels data models [62], processing of satellite images for environmental analyses [83], and virtual high-speed railway 3D models [129].…”

Web mapping and the use of geospatial information online have evolved rapidly over the past few decades. Almost everyone in the world uses mapping information, whether or not one realizes it. Almost every mobile phone now has location services and every event and object on the earth has a location. The use of this geospatial location data has expanded rapidly, thanks to the development of the Internet. Huge volumes of geospatial data are available and daily being captured online, and are used in web applications and maps for viewing, analysis, modeling and simulation. This paper reviews the developments of web mapping from the first static online map images to the current highly interactive, multi-sourced web mapping services that have been increasingly moved to cloud computing platforms. The whole environment of web mapping captures the integration and interaction between three components found online, namely, geospatial information, people and functionality. In this paper, the trends and interactions among these components are identified and reviewed in relation to the technology developments. The review then concludes by exploring some of the opportunities and directions.
