Prerequisite: some experience with GIS (geographic information systems).
They noted that modern mobile computers equipped with GPS (global positioning systems) and GIS (geographic information systems) can be used to record and interpret geologic data, and digital sources, such as Google Earth, can organize the data in three dimensions.
Using information obtained from electronic exercise monitors and GIS (geographic information systems) databases, Sallis and his team were able to compare the amount of exercise undertaken by each subject with land use information on each subject's immediate neighborhood.
