Geography is an extremely broad field. Because of this, many view the various definitions of geography proposed over the decades as inadequate. To address this, [[William D.

Often, geographers are asked to describe what they do by individuals outside the discipline<ref name="Tuan22" /> and are likely to identify closely with a specific branch, or sub-branch when describing themselves to lay people. Human geography studies people and their communities, cultures, economies, and environmental interactions by studying their relations with and across space and place.<ref name="Matthews12" /> Physical geography is concerned with the study of processes and patterns in the natural environment like the [[atmosphere]], [[hydrosphere]], [[biosphere]], and [[geosphere]].<ref name="Matthews12" /> [[Technical geography]] is interested in studying and applying techniques and methods to store, process, analyze, visualize, and use spatial data.<ref name="Dada1" /> It is the newest of the branches, the most controversial, and often other terms are used in the literature to describe the emerging category. These branches use similar geographic philosophies, concepts, and tools and often overlap significantly. |

Technical geography concerns studying and developing tools, techniques, and statistical methods employed to collect, analyze, use, and understand spatial data.<ref name="Haidu12" /><ref name="Sala13" /><ref name="Sala2" /><ref name="Ormeling1" /> Technical geography is the most recently recognized, and controversial, of the branches. Its use dates back to 1749, when a book published by [[Edward Cave]] organized the discipline into a section containing content such as cartographic techniques and globes.<ref name="cave1" /> There are several other terms, often used interchangeably with technical geography to subdivide the discipline, including "techniques of geographic analysis,"<ref>{{cite book|last1=Getis|first1=Arthur|last2=Bjelland|first2=Mark|last3=Getis|first3=Victoria|title=Introduction to Geography|date=2018|publisher=McGraw Hill|isbn=978-1-259-57000-1|edition=15th}}</ref> "Geographic Information Technology,"<ref name="intro12" /> "Geography method's and techniques,"<ref>{{cite book|title=Fundamentals of Physical Geography as a Discipline|date=2006|publisher=National Council of Educational Research and Training|location=New Delhi|isbn=81-7450-518-0|pages=1–12}}</ref> "[[Geographic Information Science]],"<ref name="Ron1">{{cite book|last1=Lake|first1=Ron|last2=Burggraf|first2=David|last3=Trninic|first3=Milan|last4=Rae|first4=Laurie|title=Geography Mark-Up Language: Foundation for the Geo-Web|date=2004|publisher=John Wiley and Sons Inc.|isbn=0-470-87154-7}}</ref> "[[geoinformatics]]," "[[geomatics]]," and "information geography". There are subtle differences to each concept and term; however, technical geography is one of the broadest, is consistent with the naming convention of the other two branches, has been in use since the 1700s, and has been used by the [[UNESCO]] [[Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems]] to divide geography into themes.<ref name="Sala13" /><ref name="Sala2" /><ref name="cave1" /> As academic fields increasingly specialize in their nature, technical geography has emerged as a branch of geography specializing in geographic methods and thought.<ref name="Haidu12" /> The emergence of technical geography has brought new relevance to the broad discipline of geography by serving as a set of unique methods for managing the interdisciplinary nature of the phenomena under investigation. While human and physical geographers use the techniques employed by technical geographers, technical geography is more concerned with the fundamental spatial concepts and technologies than the nature of the data.<ref name="Haidu12" /><ref name="Dada1" /> It is therefore closely associated with the spatial tradition of geography while being applied to the other two major branches. A technical geographer might work as a GIS analyst, a GIS developer working to make new software tools, or create general reference maps incorporating human and natural features.<ref name="Kretzschmar1">{{cite book|last1=Kretzschmar Jr.|first1=William A.|editor1-last=Schlüter|editor1-first=Julia|editor2-last=Krug|editor2-first=Manfred|title=Research Methods in Language Variation and Change: Computer mapping of language data|date=24 October 2013|publisher=Cambridge University Press|isbn=9781107469846|page=53}}</ref><gallery mode="packed-overlay" caption="Technical geography can be divided into many broad categories, such as:"> |

{{more citations needed section|date=August 2022}} All geographic research and analysis start with asking the question "where," followed by "why there." Geographers start with the fundamental assumption set forth in [[Tobler's first law of geography]], that "everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things."<ref name="Tobler12" /><ref name="Tobler22" /> As spatial interrelationships are key to this synoptic science, maps are a key tool. Classical [[cartography]] has been joined by a more modern approach to geographical analysis, computer-based [[Geographic information system|geographic information systems]] (GIS). |

In their study, geographers use four interrelated approaches: |
|||
[[pl:Geografia]] |
|||
[[pnb:جغرافیہ]] |
|||
* Analytical – Asks ''why'' we find features and populations in a specific geographic area. |
|||
[[pnt:Γεωγραφίαν]] |
|||
* Descriptive – Simply specifies the locations of features and populations. |
|||
[[ps:ځمکپوهنه]] |
|||
* Regional – Examines systematic relationships between categories for a specific region or location on the planet. |
|||
[[pt:Geografia]] |
|||
* Systematic – Groups geographical knowledge into categories that can be explored globally. |

Cartography is the art, science, and technology of making maps.<ref name="Kainz1">{{cite journal|last1=Kainz|first1=Wolfgang|title=Cartography and the others – aspects of a complicated relationship|journal=Geo-spatial Information Science|date=21 October 2019|volume=23|issue=1|pages=52–60|doi=10.1080/10095020.2020.1718000|s2cid=214162170|doi-access=free}}</ref> Cartographers study the Earth's surface representation with abstract symbols (map making). Although other subdisciplines of geography rely on maps for presenting their analyses, the actual making of maps is abstract enough to be regarded separately.<ref name="Jenks1">{{cite journal|last1=Jenks|first1=George|title=An Improved Curriculum for Cartographic Training at the College and University Level|journal=Annals of the Association of American Geographers|date=December 1953|volume=43|issue=2|pages=317–331|doi=10.2307/2560899|jstor=2560899}}</ref> Cartography has grown from a collection of drafting techniques into an actual science. |

Cartographers must learn [[cognitive psychology]] and [[ergonomics]] to understand which symbols convey information about the Earth most effectively and [[Behaviorism|behavioural psychology]] to induce the readers of their maps to act on the information. They must learn [[geodesy]] and fairly advanced mathematics to understand how the [[Figure of the Earth|shape of the Earth]] affects the distortion of map symbols projected onto a flat surface for viewing. It can be said, without much controversy, that cartography is the seed from which the larger field of geography grew. |

GIS has revolutionized the field of cartography: nearly all mapmaking is now done with the assistance of some form of [[List of GIS software|GIS software]]. The science of using GIS software and GIS techniques to represent, analyse, and predict the spatial relationships is called ''[[geographic information science]]'' (GISc).<ref name="Monmonier1">{{cite book|last1=Monmonier|first1=Mark|title=Technological Transition in Cartography|date=1985|publisher=Univ of Wisconsin Pr|isbn=978-0299100704}}</ref> |

Remote sensing is the art, science, and technology of obtaining information about Earth's features from measurements made at a distance.<ref name="Jensen1">{{cite book|last1=Jensen|first1=John|title=Introductory digital image processing: a remote sensing perspective|date=2016|publisher=Pearson Education, Inc|location=Glenview, IL|isbn=978-0-13-405816-0|pages=623}}</ref> Remotely sensed data can be either passive, such as traditional [[photography]], or active, such as [[LiDAR]].<ref name="Jensen1" /> A variety of platforms can be used for remote sensing, including [[satellite imagery]], [[aerial photography]] (including consumer drones), and data obtained from hand-held sensors.<ref name="Jensen1" /> Products from remote sensing include [[Digital elevation model]] and cartographic base maps. Geographers increasingly use remotely sensed data to obtain information about the Earth's [[land surface]], ocean, and atmosphere, because it: (a) supplies objective information at a variety of spatial scales (local to global), (b) provides a synoptic view of the area of interest, (c) allows access to distant and inaccessible sites, (d) provides spectral information outside the visible portion of the [[electromagnetic spectrum]], and (e) facilitates studies of how features/areas change over time. Remotely sensed data may be analyzed independently or in conjunction with other digital data layers (e.g., in a geographic information system). Remote sensing aids in land use, land cover (LULC) mapping, by helping to determine both what is naturally occurring on a piece of land and what human activities are taking place on it.<ref>{{cite journal|last1=Zhang|first1=Chuanrong|last2=Li|first2=Xinba|title=Land Use and Land Cover Mapping in the Era of Big Data|journal=Land|date=September 2022|volume=11|issue=10|page=1692|doi=10.3390/land11101692|doi-access=free}}</ref> |

(1951). "A statistical approach to some basic mine valuation problems on the Witwatersrand". J. of the Chem., Metal. and Mining Soc. of South Africa 52 (6): 119–139</ref> Geostatistics is used extensively in a variety of fields, including [[hydrology]], geology, petroleum exploration, weather analysis, [[urban planning]], logistics, and [[epidemiology]]. The mathematical basis for geostatistics derives from [[cluster analysis]], [[linear discriminant analysis]] and [[Non-parametric statistics|non-parametric statistical tests]], and a variety of other subjects. Applications of geostatistics rely heavily on [[Geographic information system|geographic information systems]], particularly for the [[interpolation]] (estimate) of unmeasured points. Geographers are making notable contributions to the method of quantitative techniques. |

The first rigorous system of [[Geographic coordinate system|latitude and longitude]] lines is credited to [[Hipparchus]]. He employed a [[sexagesimal]] system that was derived from [[Babylonian mathematics]].

The European [[Age of Discovery]] during the 16th and the 17th centuries, where many new lands were discovered and accounts by European explorers such as [[Christopher Columbus]], [[Marco Polo]], and [[James Cook]] revived a desire for both accurate geographic detail and more solid theoretical foundations in Europe. In 1650, the first edition of the ''[[Geographia Generalis]]'' was published by [[Bernhardus Varenius]], which was later edited and republished by others including [[Isaac Newton]].<ref name="Baker1955">{{cite journal|last1=Baker|first1=J.

The ''Geographia Generalis'' contained both theoretical background and practical applications related to ship navigation.<ref name="Warntz1989" /> The remaining problem facing both explorers and geographers was finding the latitude and longitude of a geographic location. While the problem of latitude was solved long ago, but that of longitude remained; agreeing on what zero meridians should be was only part of the problem. It was left to [[John Harrison]] to solve it by inventing the chronometer [[Harrison Number Four|H-4]] in 1760, and later in 1884 for the [[International Meridian Conference]] to adopt by convention the [[Greenwich meridian]] as zero meridians.<ref name="Aber1" /> |

The 18th and 19th centuries were the times when geography became recognized as a discrete [[List of academic disciplines|academic discipline]], and became part of a typical university curriculum in Europe (especially Paris and [[Berlin]]). The development of many geographic societies also occurred during the 19th century, with the foundations of the [[Société de Géographie]] in 1821, the [[Royal Geographical Society]] in 1830, [[Russian Geographical Society]] in 1845, [[American Geographical Society]] in 1851, and the [[National Geographic Society]] in 1888.

Over the past two centuries, the advancements in technology with computers have led to the development of [[geomatics]] and new practices such as participant observation and geostatistics being incorporated into geography's portfolio of tools. In the West during the 20th century, the discipline of geography went through four major phases: [[environmental determinism]], [[regional geography]], the [[quantitative revolution]], and [[critical geography]]. The strong interdisciplinary links between geography and the sciences of geology and [[botany]], as well as economics, sociology, and [[demographics]], have also grown greatly, especially as a result of [[earth system science]] that seeks to understand the world in a holistic view. New concepts and philosophies have emerged from the rapid advancement of computers, quantitative methods, and interdisciplinary approaches. In 1970, [[Waldo Tobler]] proposed the [[Tobler's first law of geography|first law of geography]], "everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things."<ref name="Tobler12" /><ref name="Tobler22" /> This law summarizes the first assumption geographers make about the world. |

While the discipline of geography is normally concerned with the Earth, the term can also be informally used to describe the study of other worlds, such as the [[Planet|planets]] of the [[Solar System]] and even beyond. The study of systems larger than the Earth itself usually forms part of [[Astronomy]] or [[Cosmology]]. The study of other planets is usually called [[planetary science]]. Alternative terms such as [[areography (geography of Mars)]] have been employed to describe the study of other celestial objects. Ultimately, geography may be considered a subdiscipline within planetary science. |

Aktuelle Version vun’n 13:19, 3. Aug. 2024
Geografie (van ooldgreeksch γεωγραφία geōgraphía, uut γῆ gē „Eerden“ un γράφειν gráphein „beschrieven“), oder ook Eerdkunne, höört to de Eerdwetenschoppen un ünnersocht de Eerden, woans se uutsüüt, de Länner un woans se funkschoneert.Geografie es ene grote un männigfoldige Disziplin un versöcht de Eerden med allen veelschichtigen un inwickelden Betœgen to verstaan.[1]Geografie werd ook as ene Brügge twischen de Natuurwètenschop un den Sotschaal- as ook Geistswètenschoppen bekèken.[2]
De eerste Belegg för dat Word „γεωγραφία“ (geōgraphia) was de Titel van enen Book, dat de greeksche Schriever Eratosthenes (276–194 v. Chr.) affaat het.[1] Man de Geografie as Idee (to’n Bispeel Kartografie) het den Beginn, as de Minschen anfüngen, dat se de Welt un den Ruum ümme rund verstann wollen. Een van den eersten Bispelen es de Versöök van ene Weltkaarte uut den oolden Babylon, de uut’n 9. Jaarhunderd v. Chr. stammt.[3] De Historie van’r Geografie as ene Disziplin geet dœr de Kulturen un de Jaardusende med vèlen verscheden Gruppen, de Geografie as ene Idee unafhängig van ene uutdachten, un bi de dœr Handel un Uuttuusch een up den andern Inflood nam.[4]
Vandage es Geografie ene brede un mönngfoldige Disziplin med vèlen verscheden Methoden un Wiesen an de Themen bitogaan.[5] Disziplinen mang de Geografie sind to’n Bispeel de physische Geografie - dat is woans de Eer upbuud is un wo se utkikt, as de Eerddelen, de See, de Ströme, de Bärge un ander Landschoppen.

Geografie is dat systemaatsche Studeren van de Eerden, öör Egenschoppen un Phänomen up öör.[6][7] Dat wat to de Geografie tellt, bruukt dat allgemeen een Aard rüümlike Egenschop, de up ene Kaarte wiest warrn kann, so as Koordianten, Oordsnamen oder Addressen. So kam dat ook, dat Kartografie, Geografie un Oordsnamen as een bekekekn worrn sind. Ook wenn vele Geografen ook veel över Toponomie un Kartografie weet, is dat nich dat Höövdthema för ennen. Geografen un Geograafschen studeert wo sik Phänomene, Vörgänge un Egenschoppen up de Eerden, rümmlik un tieldik verdeelt un wo de Minsch met sien Ümwelt interageert. [8] Vanwegen dat Ruum un Oord ook vele anner Themen dedrept so as Weerdschop, Gesundheid, Klima, Planten, Dere, is de Geografie een stark interdiziplinär Fack[9]. De interdiziplniäre Natuur van de geograafsche Vörgaanwiese hangt van
De Geografie as een akadeemsch Fack deelt sik griv in dree Telgen: De Humangeografie, de Physische Geografie un de Technische Geografie.[10][11] De Humaangeografie befaat sik ton gröttsten Deel mit de Ümwelt, up de Minschen Inflood nomen un de Minschen upricht hebbt un unnersöcht wo Minschen Ruum schapen, verännern, bruken.[11] De Physische geografie unnersöcht de natüürlike Ümwelt un woans Organismen, Klima, Bodem, Water, Land met een tohoophangt un Inflood up een neemt.[12] Düsse Verscheel het de integreete Geografie vöradage brocht, de vhumaangeograafsche Methoden un Methoden uut de phyische geografie verbind, un so versöcht dat Tohoopspeel van Ümwelt un Minschen to studeren.[8] De technische Geografie studeert de Methoden un Warktüge, de in Geografie bruukt warrt, so as remote sensing, kartografie un geografsche Informatschoonssysteme.[13]
