found: Wikipedia, June 5, 2024:Geographic information science (Geographic information science (GIScience, GISc) or geoinformation science is a scientific discipline at the crossroads of computational science, social science, and natural science that studies geographic information, including how it represents phenomena in the real world, how it represents the way humans understand the world, and how it can be captured, organized, and analyzed. It is a sub-field of geography, specifically part of technical geography; GIScience is conceptually related to geomatics, information science, computer science, and data science, but it claims the status of an independent scientific discipline)
