Geostatistical Methods for Mapping Groundwater Nitrate Concentrations
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the spatial changes of groundwater nitrate concentrations by using geostatistical methods based on data from 119 groundwater wells. Geostatistical methods have been used widely as a convenient tool to make decision on the management of behavior of hydrochemical parameters in groundwater. To evaluate the spatial changes nitrate concentrations in groundwat...
متن کاملTowards Spatio-Temporally Consistent Semantic Mapping
Intelligent robots require a semantic map of the surroundings for applications such as navigation and object localization. In order to generate the semantic map, previous works mainly focus on the semantic segmentations on the single RGB-D images and fuse the results by a simple majority vote. However, single image based semantic segmentation algorithms are prone to producing inconsistent segme...
متن کاملSpatial analysis and mapping of malaria risk in Malawi using point-referenced prevalence of infection data
BACKGROUND Current malaria control initiatives aim at reducing malaria burden by half by the year 2010. Effective control requires evidence-based utilisation of resources. Characterizing spatial patterns of risk, through maps, is an important tool to guide control programmes. To this end an analysis was carried out to predict and map malaria risk in Malawi using empirical data with the aim of i...
متن کاملAssessment of geostatistical and interpolation methods for mapping forest dieback intensity in Zagros forests
During recent years, oak decline has been widely spread across Brant’s oak (Quercus Brantii Lindl.) stands in the Zagros Mountains, Western Iran, which caused large-area forest dieback in several sites. Mapping the intensity and spatial distribution of forest dieback is essential for developing management and control strategies. This study evaluated a range of geostatistical and interpolation m...
متن کاملMapping monthly rainfall data in Galicia (NW Spain) using inverse distances and geostatistical methods
In this paper, results from three different interpolation techniques based on Geostatistics (ordinary kriging, kriging with external drift and conditional simulation) and one deterministic method (inverse distances) for mapping total monthly rainfall are compared. The study data set comprised total monthly rainfall from 1998 till 2001 corresponding to a maximum of 121 meteorological stations ir...
