متن کاملTowards Handling Uncertainty of Excavation Data into a GIS
Research on data quality through the analysis of accuracy and uncertainty has become a major development in GIS science. Fisher’s taxonomy provides solutions for the processing of uncertainty in spatial data representation. However, excavation data differs from geographical data, owing to the specific features of archeology such as incompleteness, temporal and functional aspects. Therefore, arc...
متن کاملWhat about people in geographic information science?
Geographic information systems (GIS) are convenient and potentially powerful platforms for transportation and urban analysis. Most GIS-based tools for transportation and urban analysis continue a place-based representation that is increasingly ill-suited to answer important questions in theory, policy and practice. The increasing disconnection between people and places means that a people-based...
متن کاملMusic Structure Representation: a Formal Model
In the present work we introduce a general formal (Object Oriented) model for the representation of musical structure information, taking into account some common feature of the information vehiculed by music analysis. The model is suitable to represent many different kinds of musical analytical entities. As an example of both musical and mathematical-computational relevance, we introduce the D...
متن کاملGeometric accessibility and geographic information: extending desktop GIS to space syntax
Accessibility indices which measure the relative `nearness' or `propinquity' of geographic locations, one to another, are not well-developed functions in proprietary geographic information systems (GIS), notwithstanding their evident usefulness for urban analysis. In this paper, we develop procedures for embedding such measures within desktop GIS, focusing on the measurement of geometric access...
