====== Glossary of Geomatics, GIS and the Geoweb ======

This bilingual glossary [[:glossaire:|French]]/English collects short, synthetic definitions of key concepts of geomatics, GIS and the nebula called the Geoweb. Some definitions may seem too simple, even simplistic or questionable in the eyes of specialists in certain disciplines. Our goal is essentially pragmatic: to facilitate access for neophytes to this area and help them in their learning.

Any comments, criticisms, proposed additions or improvements are welcome. Use the //Discussion// space below.

Note: clicking on the glossary entry in double brackets located in the blue bar at the top left of the page shows a list of all pages and entries that point to the definition in question.
