The speed and pattern of the development of internet radio, however, is greatly influenced by the decisions of organizations like the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission around the world. Such influence will tend to shape the impact internet provided radio has, and the speed at which it develops. The unique characteristic of radio will increase the importance of local radio stations as they become more ubiquitous around the world.Item Open Access Geospatial Information Management: Spatial is Still Special(Dalhousie Journal of Interdisciplinary Management, 2005) Boxall, James; Anderson, CandaceThis paper focuses on the interface between human information constructs and spatial decision making. Information policies associated with geospatial information are at the crux of any further development of infrastructures through which geospatial information emerges.
