MODERN METHODS, MEANS AND TOOLS AND THEIR ROLE IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF GEOGRAPHICAL CONCEPTS AND TERMS

Abstract

The beginning of the emergence of geography, most researchers depended on primitive methods and methods, but at the present time, knowledge development has increased and this coincided with technological development through the development of modern means and methods used in geographical studies, including quantitative and descriptive methods, and advanced modern methods and techniques through statistical methods and the use of mathematics , For many years, geographers have called for the use of methods and models in dealing with geographical issues, and they aimed behind this, to emulate and keep pace with other specialists in sociology and economics, and it is worth noting in this regard the efforts made by (Shurley G. Chorley) and (P. Haggett) in their important study on this subject, and it seems that this new trend in geography aims to revive the nature of ancient science as a branch of the body, and thus modern scientific studies work in the study of various geographical phenomena.
