Abstract
AbstractGeographic Information Systems for Transportation: Principles and Applications (Miller and Shaw) remains the only major authored text on the interdisciplinary field of Geographic Information Systems for Transportation (GIS‐T). However, Miller and Shaw () is a product of the 20th century, and the fields of GIS, transportation and GIS‐T have changed dramatically in the early 21st century. We are witnessing a revolution in transportation and urban sciences, fueled by a stunning advancement in capabilities to capture, store and process data, as well as communicate information and knowledge derived from these data. This paper is a review of GIS‐T in the 20th and 21st centuries. Using Miller and Shaw () as a touchstone, we discuss elements of GIS‐T that have stood the test of time as well as new technologies and ideas that an updated GIS‐T canon should include.
