چکیده

The Arc Hydro ground water data model is a geographic data model for representing spatial and temporal ground water information within a geographic information system (GIS). The data model is a standardized representation of ground water systems within a spatial database that provides a public domain template for GIS users to store, document, and analyze commonly used spatial and temporal ground water data sets. This paper describes the data model framework, a simplified version of the complete ground water data model that includes two-dimensional and three-dimensional (3D) object classes for representing aquifers, wells, and borehole data, and the 3D geospatial context in which these data exist. The framework data model also includes tabular objects for representing temporal information such as water levels and water quality samples that are related with spatial features.

Latin hypercube approach to estimate uncertainty in ground water vulnerability.

A methodology is proposed to quantify prediction uncertainty associated with ground water vulnerability models that were developed through an approach that coupled multivariate logistic regression with a geographic information system (GIS). This method uses Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) to illustrate the propagation of input error and estimate uncertainty associated with the logistic regressio...

Reservoir water temperature modeling by geostatistical analysis of ASTER images (Case Study: Dez Dam, Iran)

Satellite data have been used for temperature modeling both in urban areas and water. This paperstudies viability of ASTER satellite images that provide high spatial and spectral resolution to model watersurface temperature, as a fundamental water quality parameter. This study is focused on Dez dam reservoirresiding in Khuzestan province, south west of Iran. After the image corrections required...

Representing geographic dynamics

A number of related yet distinct subfields of GIScience associated with representing geographic dynamics have recently emerged. Researchers in spatio-temporal theory and data modeling, spatial process modeling, complex systems, and agent-based modeling all consider dynamic (or temporal) aspects of geographic phenomena germane to their respective specialty. Given this common ground, an obvious q...
