Voronoi Region-Based Spatiotemporal GIS Databases
The use of Voronoi diagrams in GIS-oriented spatiotemporal databases is considered. The Voronoi algorithms generate appropriate meshes for data interpolation. We illustrate the data representation in this database generated from a point-based spatiotemporal relation in the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) database.
متن کاملmapping spatial variation of disease using classic and bayesian models
abstract disease mapping includes a set of statistical techniques that lead to provide clean maps based on estimation of the incidence, prevalence and mortality rates for the users to be able to estimate the distribution of disease reliably. the main aims of disease mapping are to: describe the spatial variation in disease incidence for the formulation of etiological hypotheses; identify area...
متن کاملComputational Investigations of Bayesian Maximum Entropy Spatiotemporal Mapping
The incorporation of various sources of physical knowledge is an important aspect of spatiotemporal analysis and mapping. There exist two major knowledge bases: general knowledge and specificatory knowledge. The latter includes hard data (exact measurements) and soft data knowledge bases (such as measurement intervals, probability assessments, expert views, etc.). Due to its sound epistemologic...
متن کاملDevelopment of a GIS-based, real-time Internet mapping tool for rabies surveillance
BACKGROUND Oral rabies vaccination programs have been implemented to control the spread of wildlife rabies in the United States. However, current surveillance systems are inadequate for the efficient management and evaluation of these large scale vaccine baiting programs. With this in mind, a GIS-based rabies surveillance database and Internet mapping application was created. This surveillance ...
متن کاملMapping Khulan Habitats: A GIS-Based Approach
This paper focuses on the contribution that a combination of public domain GIS data with extensive habitat data can make to Khulan conservation in southern Mongolia. We describe a dataset taken in the Great Gobi 'A' Strictly Protected Area which represents the driest region within the overall Khulan distribution range. Potential habitats were classified following a phyto-sociological approach b...
