متن کاملA Non-geographical Application of Spatial Information Systems in Pupillometry
Spatial analysis and spatial information systems have great potential in many nongeographic domains. This paper presents an example of the utility of spatial analysis in a non-geographic domain. A technique of pupillometry using digital infrared video loosely coupled with a Spatial Information System and a spreadsheet is developed to accurately quantify pupil dilation magnitude and constriction...
متن کاملRemote sensing, geographical information system and spatial analysis for schistosomiasis epidemiology and ecology in Africa.
Beginning in 1970, the potential of remote sensing (RS) techniques, coupled with geographical information systems (GIS), to improve our understanding of the epidemiology and control of schistosomiasis in Africa, has steadily grown. In our current review, working definitions of RS, GIS and spatial analysis are given, and applications made to date with RS and GIS for the epidemiology and ecology ...

To improve the spatial retrieving by means of Geographical Information Systems (GIS), a distributed GIS-Application has been designed. This application is mainly focused on making spatial analysis, throughout Spatial Analyzer Module (SAM). SAM contains several spatial and mathematical models that have been designed and implemented for detecting landslides and flooding areas. Users can make an a...
