My impression, based on the number of publications, was that geographers were converging to "GIScience" as a preferred term. Non-geographers -- such as surveyors and geodesists and hydrographers --, seem to have their all preferences for umbrella term: geomatics, geoinformatics, etc. I don't think there's a clear winner yet. fgnievinski (talk) 05:18, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

I have listed various other terms for are listed within the article and the debate around terminology is in the controversy section. Technical geography as a term predates most of the others being bounced around by a few centuries, and is used to divide the discipline by a few authoritative sources listed within the article. As stated in the article to address this
 * "The benefit of this wording is that it is consistent with the other two branches and clearly places the discipline within geography."
 * Semantically, the issue of terms is far from new, and there is no reason that multiple highly related terms can't coexist. GeogSage  ( ⚔Chat?⚔ ) 05:34, 22 April 2023 (UTC)
