Geographical Information Science (GIScience) has become an important sub-discipline for North American geographers but in Australia few geographers are engaged in this 'research in GIS' area. Australian geographers seem more concerned with 'research using GIS' which has become absorbed into the geographical tradition of thinking and communicating with diagrams, images, and maps. The breakdown of disciplinary boundaries in Australia makes it difficult to be sure, but most of those engaged in GIScience in Australia seem to identify with disciplines other than geography
