چکیده

In this white paper, we will discuss the issue of data trust in hydrology, how data trust arises as a central theme in modeling hydrological objects, and what one can do to enable research by building trustcentered infrastructure. We will discuss how trust and distrust arise in practice. We will suggest a radical strategy for managing digital research data that solves perceived problems in hydrological research and has potential to solve similar problems in other geo-disciplines. This approach is based upon a trust-centered form of Bayesian reasoning about what might be called the “plausibility” of data: a measure of how much we trust it.

Developing a BIM-based Spatial Ontology for Semantic Querying of 3D Property Information

With the growing dominance of complex and multi-level urban structures, current cadastral systems, which are often developed based on 2D representations, are not capable of providing unambiguous spatial information about urban properties. Therefore, the concept of 3D cadastre is proposed to support 3D digital representation of land and properties and facilitate the communication of legal owners...

Measurement of Morphological Characteristics of Raw Cane Sugar Crystals Using Digital Image Analysis

Raw cane sugar is one of the most important product in the sugar industry and is the main raw material for the white sugar production. Morphological and physical properties of this product might influence the final white sugar. For instance, the behavior during centrifugation, transport and storage is related to the characteristics of these crystals. The object of this study was to determine th...

The Application of Bim Technology and Its Reliability in the Static Load Analysis

Professional paper BIM (Building Information Modelling), or modelling based on object data, is a process that involves the construction of virtual objects, i.e. the creation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of objects. The BIM system, therefore, is used to create a model using relevant information. BIM is applicable throughout the entire life ...

BUILDING ROOF CONTOUR EXTRACTION FROM LiDAR DATA

This paper proposes a method for the automatic extraction of building roof contours from a LiDAR-derived digital surface model (DSM). The method is based on two steps. First, to detect aboveground objects (buildings, trees, etc.), the DSM is segmented through a recursive splitting technique followed by a region merging process. Vectorization and polygonization are used to obtain polyline repres...
