نویسنده
چکیده
Within the framework of uncertainty-based geographic information science, this paper addresses modeling uncertainties in integrating multiple sources of data, modeling uncertainty in overlay analysis, modeling uncertainty in line simplification, uncertainty-based spatial data mining, uncertainty-based spatial queries, theory and methods for controlling the quality of spatial data, modeling uncertain topological relations, and dissemination of uncertainty information of spatial data and analysis.

Four Advances in Handling Uncertainties in Spatial Data and Analysis
Data quality and uncertainty modeling for spatial data and spatial analyses is regarded as one of the disciplines of geographic information science together with space and time in geography, as well as spatial analysis. In the past two decades, a lot of research efforts have been devoted to uncertainty modeling for spatial data and analyses, and this paper presents our work in this research are...
متن کاملMarkov Chain Modeling of Multinomial Land-Cover Classes
Quantitatively modeling the spatial distribution and uncertainties of landcover classes is crucial in geographic information science. However, currently suitable methods for modeling multinomial categorical variables for geographical analyses are rare because of the complex spatial interdependence of multinomial classes. In this paper we use a recently presented two-dimensional Markov chain mod...
متن کاملLocating Ornamental and Medicinal Saffron Cultivation Based on AHP Analysis in GIS Environment in Ardabil Province

متن کاملZ-Cognitive Map: An Integrated Cognitive Maps and Z-Numbers Approach under Cognitive Information
Usually, in real-world engineering problems, there are different types of uncertainties about the studied variables, which can be due to the specific variables under investigation or interaction between them. Fuzzy cognitive maps, which addresses the cause-effect relation between variables, is one of the most common models for better understanding of the problems, especially when the quantitati...
