Using ArcGIS to Analyze the Effects of Community Characteristics
Our paper and presentation will describe how we used ArcGIS to manage multiple sources data and to derive quantitative measures of neighborhood level characteristics for six study sites around the US. Some of the neighborhood characteristics include proximity to recreational facilities, street connectivity, population density, crime, mass transit, neighborhood SES, neighborhood terrain, and lan...
متن کاملUsing ArcGIS 8.3 for Pipelines
Three of the primary enhancements of ArcGIS 8.3 include improved support for linear referencing, the ability to do disconnected editing, and topology. This presentation will focus on the application of these enhancements as they relate to pipeline GIS. Dynamic Segmentation of linear pipeline features in a geodatabase will be discussed with particular attention to ArcGIS 8.3 features. Disconnect...
متن کاملDetecting and Modelling the Trend of Change in the Forest Land Use in Garasu Watershed Area Using Landscape Metrics
Detecting, predicting and quantifying the trends of landscape pattern change in the forests of Gharasu watershed area are necessary so as to assess the crises or prevent them. To this aim, the land use maps belonging to the years 1987, 2002 and 2018 were classified through the maximum likelihood method, and the forest area changes were estimated. Then, through the Geomod model and the forest ch...
متن کاملLand Use Classification Using Optimum-Path Forest
It was introduced in this paper the Optimum-Path Forest for land use classification aiming a better environmental management, using images obtained from CBERS 2B CCD satellite covering the area of the Rio das Pedras watershed, Itatinga City, São Paulo State, Brazil. We also compared the Optimum-Path Forest algorithm with the well known supervised classifiers: Artificial Neural Networks using Mu...
متن کاملUsing a land cover classification based on satellite imagery to improve the precision of forest inventory area estimates
Estimates of forest area were obtained for the states of Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, and Missouri in the United States using stratified analyses and observations from forest inventory plots measured in federal fiscal year 1999. Strata were created by aggregating the land cover classes of the National Land Cover Data (NLCD), and strata weights were calculated as proportions of strata pixel counts....
