Jaroslav Burian(editor)
Jaroslav Burian received his PhD in Cartography, Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing from Charles University, Prague in 2012. He has been working as an assistant professor focused on geoinformatics in human geography at the Department of Geoinformatics, Faculty of Science, Palacký University, since 2007. He teaches courses that focus on geoinformatics applied in public administration, spatial planning and human geography. His professional specialisation is primarily on the issues of urban planning and modelling of the urban processes in GIS. He developed the Urban Planner model that is used in several Czech regions. As the author or co-author, he has more than 60 scientific and popular articles and has co-authored two atlases and four books. He is an active member of Czech Association for Geoinformation and a member of the EMI journal editorial board.Jaroslav Burian received his PhD in Cartography, Geoinformatics and Remote Sensing from Charles University, Prague in 2012.

Spationomy: Spatial Exploration of Economic Data and Methods of Interdisciplinary Analytics
This open access book is based on "Spationomy – Spatial Exploration of Economic Data", an interdisciplinary and international project in the frame of ERASMUS+ funded by the European Union. The project aims to exchange interdisciplinary knowledge in the fields of economics and geomatics. For the newly introduced courses, interdisciplinary learning materials have been developed by a team of lecturers from four different universities in three countries. In a first study block, students were taught methods from the two main research fields. Afterwards, the knowledge gained had to be applied in a project. For this international project, teams were formed, consisting of one student from each university participating in the project. The achieved results were presented in a summer school a few months later. At this event, more methodological knowledge was imparted to prepare students for a final simulation game about spatial and economic decision making. In a broader sense, the chapters will present the methodological background of the project, give case studies and show how visualisation and the simulation game works.
