Behaviour Monitoring and Interpretation - BMI
Focuses on behaviour monitoring and interpretation with regard to two main areas of focus: investigation of motion patterns and ambient assisted living. This book presents contributions on research in both these areas. It includes chapters discussing developments in monitoring and representing behaviours, with a focus on movement-based behaviour.
Spatial Information Theory
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Spatial Information Theory, COSIT 2011, held in Belfast, ME, USA, in September 2011. The 23 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 55 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on maps and navigation, spatial change, spatial reasoning, spatial cognition and social aspects of space, perception and spatial semantics, and space and language.
Geospatial Analysis and Modelling of Urban Structure and Dynamics
A Coming of Age: Geospatial Analysis and Modelling in the Early Twenty First Century Forty years ago when spatial analysis first emerged as a distinct theme within geography’s quantitative revolution, the focus was largely on consistent methods for measuring spatial correlation. The concept of spatial au- correlation took pride of place, mirroring concerns in time-series analysis about similar kinds of dependence known to distort the standard probability theory used to derive appropriate statistics. Early applications of spatial correlation tended to reflect geographical patterns expressed as points. The perspective taken on such analytical thinking was founded on induction, the search for...
Spatial Data Quality
As research in the geosciences and social sciences becomes increasingly dependent on computers, applications such as geographical information systems are becoming indispensable tools. But the digital representations of phenomena that these systems require are often of poor quality, leading to inaccurate results, uncertainty, error propagation, and
Re-Presenting GIS
'Geographical information science' is not merely a technical subject but also poses theoretical questions on the nature of geographic representation and whether there exist limits on the ability of GI systems to deal with certain objects and issues. This book presents the debate surrounding technical GIS and theory of representation from an 'inside' GIS perspective. Chapters are authored by leading researchers from a range of fields including geographers, planners, ecologists and computer scientists from Europe and North America.
Geographic Information Science
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Conference on Geographic Information Science, GIScience 2002, held in Boulder, Colorado, USA in September 2002.The 24 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 paper submissions. Among the topics addressed are Voronoi diagram representation, geospacial database design, vector data transmission, geographic information retrieval, geo-ontologies, relative motion analysis, Web-based maps information retrieval, spatial pattern recognition, environmental decision support systems, multi-scale spatial databases, mobile journey planning, searching geographical data, indexing, terrain modeling, spatial allocation, distributed geographic internet information systems, and spatio-thematic information programming.
Geographic Information Science at the Heart of Europe
For the seventh consecutive year, the AGILE promotes the publication of a book collecting high-level scientific papers from unpublished fundamental scientific research in the field of Geographic Information Science. As the agenda for Europe 2020 is currently being set, this book demonstrates how geographic information science is at the heart of Europe. The contributions open perspectives for innovative services that will strengthen our European economy, and which will inform citizens about their environment while preserving their privacy. The latest challenges of spatial data infrastructures are addressed, such as the connection with the Web vocabularies or the representation of genealogy. User generated data (through social networks or through interactive cameras and software) is also an important breakthrough in our domain. A trend to deal more and more with time, events, ancient data, a nd activities is noticeable this year as well. This volume collects the 23 best full papers presented during the 16th AGILE Conference on Geographic Information Science, held between 14 and 17 May 2013 in Leuven, Belgium.
Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 4th International Workshop on Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems, W2GIS 2004, held in Goyang, Korea in November 2004. The 19 revised full papers presented went through two rounds of reviewing and improvement and were selected from initially 39 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on Web GIS, mobile GIS and LBS, interoperability and security in W2GIS, indexing and query processing in W2GIS, map services for location-based services, and 3D GIS and telematics.
PRICAI 2010: Trends in Artificial Intelligence
Annotation This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Pacific Rim Conference on Artificial Intelligence, PRICAI 2010, held in Daegu, Korea, in August/September 2010. The 48 revised full papers presented together with 21 short papers in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 191 submissions. The volume concentrates on AI theories, technologies and their applications in the areas of social and economic importance for countries in the Pacific Rim.
Geospatial Information Technology for Emergency Response
Disaster management is generally understood to consist of four phases: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery. While these phases are all important and interrelated, response and recovery are often considered to be the most critical in terms of saving lives. Response is the acute phase occurring after the event, and includes all arrangemen
