Evolution of Geographical Information Systems
SUMMARY Geoinformatics is described as a scientific and technical complex integrating the branch of scientific knowledge, the appropriate technology and the applied, or productive, activities concerned with the development and implementation of geographical information systems. Four stages of geoinformatics evolution are discussed, and its prospects are outlined in brief. 1. Introduction Geoinf...
متن کاملModeling Industrial Evolution in Geographical Space
In this paper we study a class of evolutionary models of industrial agglomeration with local positive feedbacks, which allow for a wide set of empirically-testable implications. Their roots rest in the Generalized Polya Urn framework. Here, however, we build on a birth-death process over a finite number of locations and a finite population of firms. The process of selection among production sit...
متن کاملRoving Bandits ? The Geographical Evolution of African
The fighting in some civil wars primarily takes place in a few stable locations, while the fighting in others moves substantially. We posit that rebel groups that do not primarily fight for a specific ethnic group, that receive outside military assistance, or that have relatively weak fighting capacity tend to fight in inconsistent locations. We develop new measures of conflict zone movement to...
متن کاملThe geographical and temporal evolution of sexually transmitted disease epidemics.
In developing appropriate interventions to control sexually transmitted infections (STIs) it is important to understand the distribution of infections, and how this distribution is influenced by the dynamic nature of epidemics. The epidemiology of STIs has been described as a series of phases, which loosely positions a population within the history of an epidemic. The relation between a mathema...
متن کاملMolecular variation, evolution and geographical distribution of louping ill virus.
Following the demonstration that the tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) subgroup viruses are distributed as a cline across the Northern Hemisphere (Zanotto et al., 1995), we have analyzed the dispersal pattern of louping ill (LI) virus, the most westerly located member in the cline. A total number of 21 LI or LI-related virus E gene sequences have been used for a detailed molecular analysis of the e...
