Geographers perceive information and communication technologies (ICT), including GIS software, as an element of inevitable transformations in geography. Some consider them to be ancillary to geography, some also note a digital turn that renews interest and links with areas such as computational social sciences and data-driven geography to gain a deeper insight into quantitative research, especially multi-resolution and multi-scale, on a time scale. Recently, the diversity of digital devices, platforms, applications and services is an inherent, normal and expected element of everyday life, and digital technologies are also a media standard for generating and analyzing knowledge in qualitative research. Progress, commercialization and popularization of geospatial technologies contribute to the development of spatial ontology and spatial epistemology. Semantic analysis of articles published in the most important geographical scientific journals (2014–2018) proves that interdisciplinary, methodological or applied geography approaches are most active in geographical scientific discourse.

Geografowie postrzegają technologie informacyjne i komunikacyjne, w tym oprogramowanie GIS, jako element nieuchronnych przemian w geografii. Część uważa, że są instrumentami pomocniczymi geografii, część zauważa „cyfrowy zwrot” (digital turn), który odnawia zainteresowanie i związki z takimi dziedzinami, jak computational social sciences oraz data-driven geography w celu uzyskania głębszego wglądu w badania ilościowe, w skali czasowej, wielorozdzielcze i wieloskalowe. Współcześnie różnorodność cyfrowych urządzeń, platform, aplikacji i usług jest nieodłącznym, normalnym i oczekiwanym elementem codziennego życia, a technologie cyfrowe są również standardem medialnym generowania i analizy wiedzy w badaniach jakościowych. W miarę postępu, komercjalizacji i popularyzacji technologii geoprzestrzennych, one same przyczyniają się do rozwoju ontologii i epistemologii przestrzennych. Analiza semantyczna artykułów opublikowanych w najważniejszych czasopismach naukowych dedykowanych różnym dyscyplinom geografii (w latach 2014–2018) dowodzi, że w geograficznym dyskursie naukowym najbardziej aktywne jawią się czasopisma geograficzne podejmujące tematykę interdyscyplinarną, metodologiczną lub z zakresu geografii stosowanej.

It is possible to make analyses within the field of GIS applying cellular automata. One of the purposes of socio-economic geography is indirect understanding of the phenomenon by analyzing spatial patterns and inferring spatio-temporal processes looking rather for local hotspots. The cellular automata are the tool both for spatio-temporal inferring based on local conditions and data visualization. The evidence is the case study of spatial simulation of Warsaw Urban Area (Poland). The author verifies the hypothesis that the present layout and extent of the Warsaw agglomeration determines further directions of the city's spatial development. To this end, he employs a method based on cellular automata theory.

The development of information and communication technologies (ICTs) has significant economic and social impacts at both the global and regional level. Some of these implications have been perceived as positive and unexpected. While both the positive and negative social and economic impacts have been highlighted in the literature, opinions on these impacts remain ambiguous. Those aspects considered to be advantageous include faster communication, ease of use, development in the range of services and revenues, and an increase in individuals’ free time allowance. ICT penetrates all branches of the economy as a set of general purpose technologies. New information and communication technologies ease everyday life, serve as tools to help people in extreme situations, e.g. accidents, illnesses or natural disasters, and are also the pillars of contemporary entertainment media. The usefulness of ICT has been stressed and loudly disseminated to a large extent by the media. On the other hand, these new technologies sensitize society in quite new ways to the well-known natural hazards that people have encountered in the past.
