Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
This book offers an insightful exploration of how Geographic Information Systems (GIS) contribute to understanding heritage change and revitalizing urban identities amid rapid urbanization. Geographic Information Systems for Urban Identity, Urban Morphology and Urban Transformation shows how GIS bridges the gap between urban development and heritage preservation, supporting informed decisions for sustainable historic city management. Through an interdisciplinary lens combining geography, planning, architecture, and technology, it encourages collaboration among diverse stakeholders—from planners to local communities. Including global case studies, it highlights innovative practices and critically examines ethical and socio-cultural challenges of using GIS in urban transformation. This volume is an essential resource for planners, researchers, policymakers, and heritage professionals seeking tools for sustainable and culturally rooted urban futures.
