This article is the position paper for the ESF-GISDATA Specialist Meeting on GIS &
Spatial Analysis, Amsterdam, 1-5December1993. The focus here is on the two major
themes of the meeting: Spatial Data Analysis and Spatial Modelling. Special emphasis
is laid on specific problems and possibilities for interfacing spatial analysis tools (i.e.
spatial data analysis techniques and spatial models) and GIS. Both GIS application
fields, the environmental sciences and the social sciences, are taken into
consideration. (authors' abstract)Series: Discussion Papers of the Institute for Economic Geography and GIScienc
