A 3D hydrodynamic/pollutant transport model was used to simulate the currents and pollutant transport in coastal areas. The bathymetric and shoreline data was provided to the model via a GIS module that operates in the ArcView GIS environment. The module is efficient and capable of generating bathymetric rectangular grids and shorelines of different resolution for open and closed boundary scena...

ful for diagrammatic planning, such as designing harvest and silvicultural blocks, and as a geographic sketchpad for note-taking in the course o f planning activities. The SBWDSS could use this functionality in an ArcView version o f one o f its tools known as the Protection Planning System (PROPS), which is currently implemented using ARC/INFO. This system produces a thematic forest stand map ...

BACKGROUND: HealthCyberMap http://healthcybermap.semanticweb.org aims at mapping parts of health information cyberspace in novel ways to deliver a semantically superior user experience. This is achieved through "intelligent" categorisation and interactive hypermedia visualisation of health resources using metadata, clinical codes and GIS. HealthCyberMap is an ArcView 3.1 project. WebView, the I...

This paper discusses the use of a geographic information systems (GIS), Arcview 2.1, linked with a dynamic graphics program, XGobi, in the statistical analysis of spatial data. The link allows multivariate data, collected at geographic locations and stored in Arcview, to be passed into XGobi and analyzed dynamically. The connection between the points in XGobi and the spatial locations from whic...

Statistical models fit to data often require extensive and challenging re-estimation before achieving final form. For example, outliers can adversely affect fits. In other cases involving spatial data, a cluster may exist for which the model is incorrect, also adversely affecting the fit to the “good” data. In both cases, estimate residuals must be checked and rechecked until the data are clean...

One of the major components of precision agriculture is the precision fertilization. The basic principle of precision fertilization is to adjust the fertilizer input according to the specific circumstances or properties of soils in each location for the least waste and the highest profit. The paper presents a feasible approach for developing the spatial distribution map of soil nutrients based ...

Interpretation of sugarcane field records can bc greatly improved by linking them to a Geographic Information System database, which allows trends to be mapped and queries to be performed. Linking a Geographic Information System to a crop or irrigation model allows simulation of crop yield and irrigation water use efficiency for each field, based on ficld informatton. The Arcview Geographic Inf...
