摘要

Jerome E. Dobson，堪萨斯大学名誉教授;美国地理学会会长;2014年詹姆斯·r·安德森应用地理荣誉勋章获得者，在美国地理学术清洗的背景下讨论了他的职业生涯。他的亮点包括他在国家科学院和美国国务院担任杰斐逊科学研究员的时间。Dobson因其在地理信息系统(GIS)方面的开创性工作和2013年莱因哈特大学(Reinhardt University)的校友身份，获得了两项终身成就奖。他的贡献包括自动化地理的范例，他在创建国家地理信息和分析中心方面发挥了重要作用，以及他领导的LandScan全球人口数据库，这是估计风险人口的事实上的世界标准。他最近的研究包括测试一个测绘雷区的新系统;设计和颁布目前的地雷、雷区和排雷行动地图表示世界标准;并领导了六次AGS鲍曼探险。

Geography's Second Twilight

Jerome E. Dobson, professor emeritus, University of Kansas; president of the American Geographical Society; and recipient of the 2014 James R. Anderson Medal of Honor in Applied Geography, discusses his career in the context of America's academic purge of geography. Highlights include his time as a Jefferson Science Fellow with the National Academies and U. S. Department of State. Dobson has been recognized with two lifetime achievement awards for his pioneering work in geographic information systems (GIS) and as Alumnus of 2013 at Reinhardt University. His contributions include the paradigm of automated geography, his instrumental role in originating the National Center for Geographic Information and Analysis, and his leadership of the LandScan Global Population Database, the de facto world standard for estimating populations at risk. His recent research includes testing a new system for mapping minefields; designing and promulgating the current world standard for cartographic representation of landmines, minefields, and mine actions; and leading six AGS Bowman Expeditions.
