Cadastral data integration through Linked Data
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Cadastral data is one of the more important types of geospatial data. Taking into account the importance of these data, several international bodies have worked for creating a standardised model for land administration. ... -
Capability of movementfeatures extracted fromGPS trajectoriesforthe classification of fine‐grained behaviors
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Recent advances in tracking technologies provide an unprecedented opportunity for a better understanding of animal movement. Data from multiple sensors can be used to capture crucial factors deriving the behaviors of the ... -
Characteristics of Citizen-contributed Geographic Information
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Current Internet applications have been increasingly incorporating citizen-contributed geographic information (CCGI) with much heterogeneous characteristics. Nevertheless, despite their differences, several terms are often ... -
Comparative study of Land Use/Cover classification using Flickr photos, satellite imagery and Corine land cover database
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Volunteered Geographic Information has been increasing exponentially over the last years, capturing the attention of the scientific community. Researchers have been very active exploring a vast amount of initiatives and ... -
Comparing Knowledge-Driven and Data-Driven Modeling methods for susceptibility mapping in spatial epidemiology: a case study in Visceral Leishmaniasis
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)The aim of this study is to compare knowledge-driven and data-driven methods for susceptibility mapping in spatial epidemiology. Our comparison focuses on one of the arguably most important requisites in such models, namely ... -
Cropland capture: A gaming approach to improve global land cover
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Accurate and reliable information on global cropland extent is needed for a number of applications, e g. to estimate potential yield losses in the wake of a drought or for assessing future scenarios of climate change on ... -
Crowdsourced-based mapping of historical west-to-east routes from the textual accounts of European Travelers
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Through the centuries, numerous travellers and orientalists visited Persia (Iran) and described the country and its inhabitants in their travel writings. These travel accounts comprise valuable historical information about ... -
Data Scarcity or low Representativeness?: What hinders accuracy and precision of spatial interpolation of climate data?
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Data scarcity is a major scientific challenge for accuracy and precision of spatial interpolation of climatic fields, especially in climatestressed developing countries. Methodologies have been suggested for coping up ... -
Design ofthe Data Transformation Architecture forthe INSPIRE Data Model Browser
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)The INSPIRE directive requires that inside a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) data are provided using a model compliant with the INSPIRE Data Model (IDM). Therefore, one of the main issues during the implementation of an ... -
ELF GeoLocator Service
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)This paper describes the implementation of a gazetteer service, GeoLocator, developed in the project ‘European Location Framework’ (ELF). The GeoLocator service contains data from the INSPIRE/ELF themes Geographical Names, ... -
Enhancing the role of Citizen Sensors in Mapping: COST Action TD1202
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)This article introduces a strategic initiative, COST Action TD1202, focused on the role of citizen sensors in mapping. It outlines the Action’s scope, aims and current status. In particular, the article outlines the potential ... -
Error propagation in a fuzzy logic spatial multi-criteria evaluation
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)Quantifying errors in results of spatial multi-criteria evaluation (MCE) techniques is essential to improve the credibility of MCE in planning and decision-making. We present an error propagation procedure using Monte Carlo ... -
Estimating Moving Regions out of Point Data – from Excavation Sites in the Amazon region to Areas of Influence of Prehistoric Cultures
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)How can we derive the changing area of influence of specific cultures from only a few excavation sites in the Amazon region? The approach used for calculating areas of influence for several time intervals strongly depends ... -
Evaluation of subjective preferences regarding indoor maps: comparison of schematic maps and floor plans
AGILE Digital Editions (2014-06)In this study, we investigate subjective preferences regarding floor plans and schematic maps in the use of a map in an indoor environment. To achieve this, we performed a qualitative experiment with a random user sample; ... -
Exploring the market potential for geo-ICT companies in relation to INSPIRE
