In this paper we present the Edinburgh Geo-annotator, a web-based annotation tool for the manual geo-resolution of location mentions in text using a gazetteer. The annotation tool has an interlinked text and map interface which lets annotators pick correct candidates within the gazetteer more easily. The geo-annotator can be used to correct the output of a geoparser or to create gold standard g...

background: soil and sediment serve as major reservoir for contaminants as they possess ability to bind various chemicals together. in this study the concentrations of heavy metals cd, cr and cu were analyzed in surface sediments of agh gel wetland in west of iran. methods: the sediment samples were taken from 10 stations. the samples were subjected to bulk digestion and chemical partitioning a...

Geo-anomalies with complex structures in the earth’s crust may be defined as preferable hydrothermal oreforming targets. The separation and explanation of anomaly from geological background have a profound influence on the analysis of geological evolution and the ore-forming process. Usually one of the key steps to identify favorable exploration targets is to determine the threshold to separate...

The last two decades have shown a major shift from stand-alone software systems to networked ones. As with all information system domains, Geographic Information Systems (GISs) have been influenced to a large extent by recent internet developments, resulting in an increasing availability of client/server applications using distributed geo-(web-)services, such as interactive maps, route planners...
