In the two decades preceding, the start of the new millennium, geography as a discipline witnessed an innovative revolution that completely reorganized the traditional boundaries of this field. Building upon its established strengths and embracing the novel ideas and perspectives brought about by the technological boom of the late 1980, geography has expanded into a more robust, recognized, marketable, unified and diversified scientific discipline (Gaile & willmott, 2003).
