While geocomputation is not daily used in GIS environments and traditional GIS projects, it is the focus of a vibrant collaborative and research community in developing new geocomputational methods, tools and applications that are integrated into multiple application domains such as economics, sociology, geodemography, health, criminology, transportation, biology, remote sensing and cities. Open science, reproducible research practices, and strong collaboration make geocomputing an excellent vehicle for creatively exploring together the theory and practice of using geospatial data in a computational way to solve real-world problems.
This concept has been renamed from "Areas of application" and has been moved to a different subarea inside Geocomputation
