Mapping Large Spatial Flow Data with Hierarchical ClusteringTransactions in GIS - Tập 18 Số 3 - Trang 421-435 - 2014
Xi Zhu, Diansheng Guo
AbstractIt is challenging to map large spatial flow data due to the problem of
occlusion and cluttered display, where hundreds of thousands of flows overlap
and intersect each other. Existing flow mapping approaches often aggregate flows
using predetermined high‐level geographic units (e.g. states) or bundling
partial flow lines that are close in space, both of which cause a significant
loss or di... hiện toàn bộ
Toward Optimal Calibration of the SLEUTH Land Use Change ModelTransactions in GIS - Tập 11 Số 1 - Trang 29-45 - 2007
Charles Dietzel, Keith Clarke
AbstractSLEUTH is a computational simulation model that uses adaptive cellular
automata to simulate the way cities grow and change their surrounding land uses.
It has long been known that models are of most value when calibrated, and that
using back‐casting (testing against known prior data) is an effective
calibration method. SLEUTH's calibration uses the brute force method: every
possible combin... hiện toàn bộ
Spatial Differences in Multi‐Resolution Urban Automata ModelingTransactions in GIS - Tập 8 Số 4 - Trang 479-492 - 2004
Charles Dietzel, Keith Clarke
AbstractThe last decade has seen a renaissance in spatial modeling. Increased
computational power and the greater availability of spatial data have aided in
the creation of new modeling techniques for studying and predicting the growth
of cities and urban areas. Cellular automata is one modeling technique that has
become widely used and cited in the literature; yet there are still some very
basic ... hiện toàn bộ
Quality Assessment of the French OpenStreetMap DatasetTransactions in GIS - Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 435-459 - 2010
Jean‐François Girres, Guillaume Touya
AbstractThe concept of Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI) has recently
emerged from the new Web 2.0 technologies. The OpenStreetMap project is
currently the most significant example of a system based on VGI. It aims at
producing free vector geographic databases using contributions from Internet
users. Spatial data quality becomes a key consideration in this context of
freely downloadable geo... hiện toàn bộ
Supporting Accessibility for Blind and Vision‐impaired People With a Localized Gazetteer and Open Source GeotechnologyTransactions in GIS - Tập 16 Số 2 - Trang 177-190 - 2012
Matthew Rice, Ahmad O. Aburizaiza, Jacques Tisseau, Brandon M. Shore, Fabiana I. Paez
AbstractDisabled people, especially the blind and vision‐impaired, are
challenged by many transitory hazards in urban environments such as construction
barricades, temporary fencing across walkways, and obstacles along curbs. These
hazards present a problem for navigation, because they typically appear in an
unplanned manner and are seldom included in databases used for accessibility
mapping. Tact... hiện toàn bộ
Consistency among parts and aggregates: A computational modelTransactions in GIS - Tập 1 Số 3 - Trang 189-206 - 1996
Nectaria Tryfona, Max J. Egenhofer
Heterogeneous geographic databases contain multiple views of the same geographic
objects at different levels of spatial resolution. When users perceive
geographic objects as one spatial unit, although they are physically separated
into multiple parts, appropriate methods are needed to assess the consistency
among the aggregate and the parts. The critical aspect is that the overall
spatial relation... hiện toàn bộ
Integration of Space Syntax into GIS: New Perspectives for Urban MorphologyTransactions in GIS - Tập 6 Số 3 - Trang 295-309 - 2002
Bin Jiang, Christophe Claramunt
The research field of transportation demand forecasting has started to focus on
disaggregate travel behavior and micro‐simulation models. To create data
infrastructure, disaggregate trip surveys are conducted and large numbers of
observations are collected. To efficiently exploit these surveys, the transfer
of the individual trip data to a GIS must start with the development of a solid
conceptual ... hiện toàn bộ
Understanding the interplay between bus, metro, and cab ridership dynamics in Shenzhen, ChinaTransactions in GIS - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 855-871 - 2018
Mingliang Yue, Chaogui Kang, Clio Andris, Kun Qin, Yu Liu, Qingxiang Meng
AbstractThe most common mass transit modes in metropolitan cities include buses,
subways, and taxicabs, each of which contribute to an interconnected complex
network that delivers urban dwellers to their destinations. Understanding the
intertwined usages of these three transit modes at different places and time
allows for better sensing of urban mobility and the built environment. In this
article,... hiện toàn bộ
