متن کاملStudy of Spatial Data Quality Elements and VGI Linear Data Quality Assessment Methods
Volunteered Geographic Information has provided a rich and valuable resource for spatial data in a variety of applications. Despite the many benefits, this information does not provide any guarantee for their quality. So far, there are several methods to determine the quality of VGI. In addition to introducing quality elements and their evaluation methods, the present study attempts to explore ...
متن کاملMonotonic Regression for Assessment of Trends in Environmental Quality Data
Monotonic regression is a non-parametric method that is designed especially for applications in which the expected value of a response variable increases or decreases in one or more explanatory variables. Here, we show how the recently developed generalised pooladjacent-violators (GPAV) algorithm can greatly facilitate the assessment of trends in time series of environmental quality data. In pa...
متن کاملMapping environmental injustices: pitfalls and potential of geographic information systems in assessing environmental health and equity.
