Geospatial Science for Smart Land Management An Asian Context

Land management and geospatial science arc closely related. Land management deals with pub­ lic policy interventions in use and disposal rights of private land. This has huge implications for the effectiveness, allocative efficiency, democratic legitimacy, and justice of the use of the scarce resource of land. This in turn requires reliable geospatial information to enable land management to make informed decisions about the allocation and distribution of land uses. So. ultimately, land management needs geospatial science, and without geospatial science a smart land management (whatever this entails) is very difficult. The relation between land management and geospatial analysis is thereby by no means static. Both fields are highly dynamic. In land management, urbanization, climate change, demographic change, geopolitical aspects. or increasing diversification of society, land reforms, or economic growth imply adjustments and dynamics in land management. Many of such aspects are accelerated in Asian countries-especially in emerging economies in the Pacific rim. This makes a volume on land management in Asia interesting in itself. Geospatial science has also been developing quickly over the past decades. Foremost, the rapid digitalization. big data, improved possibilities of remote sensing; progressing artificial intelligence; or increasing possibilities and integration of applications in practice create new possibilities but also challenges. Many of the challenges are addressed in the chapters or this book. This makes the book relevant for geospatial science.
