Causes And Consequences Of Map Generalization by Elsa Joao Pdf
This text describes late-1990s understanding of map generalisation in the context of paper maps and GIS. Its particular value should be in helping to further automate and measure the process of map generalisation.; The research has concentrated on quantifying generalisation effects and on analysing how these effects of generalisation locked into the maps were measured. Elsa Joao's book covers the background to the problems of map generlasation; the methodology developed by the author to investigate the consequences of the map generalisation; a detailed description of results, and a conclusion that draws together consequences for the broader applications to GIS.

Modelling Scale in Geographical Information Science by Nicholas Tate,Peter M. Atkinson Pdf
Scale has long been a fundamental concept in geography. Its importance is emphasised in geographical information science (GIScience) where the computational domain necessitates the rigorous definition and handling of scale. Geographical information systems are now used in almost every walk of life, but scale is often handled poorly in such systems. Modelling Scale in Geographical Information Science is written by an international team of contributors drawn from both industry and academia, and considers models and methods of scaling spatial data in both human and physical systems. Divided into three sections to give a balanced coverage of the key problems, tools and models associated with scale: * Fractal Models * The Modifiable Areal Unit Problem * Changing the Scale of Measurement This book is an essential read for all GIScience researchers, advanced students and practitioners who want to delve more deeply into the scale issues of the spatial data and spatial models that form the basis of their analyses.
Encyclopedia of GIS by Shashi Shekhar,Hui Xiong Pdf
The Encyclopedia of GIS provides a comprehensive and authoritative guide, contributed by experts and peer-reviewed for accuracy, and alphabetically arranged for convenient access. The entries explain key software and processes used by geographers and computational scientists. Major overviews are provided for nearly 200 topics: Geoinformatics, Spatial Cognition, and Location-Based Services and more. Shorter entries define specific terms and concepts. The reference will be published as a print volume with abundant black and white art, and simultaneously as an XML online reference with hyperlinked citations, cross-references, four-color art, links to web-based maps, and other interactive features.
Generalization in Digital Cartography by Robert Brainerd McMaster,K. Stuart Shea Pdf
This monograph is part of the Resource Publications in Geography Series of the Association of American Geographers. It describes the many issues & problems associated with representing cartographic features on maps as the scale of the map changes. The first two chapters of the book discuss the graphic problems associated with scale change & give a history of map generalization. A set of maps, at different scales, is used to illustrate the conceptual & technical problems of generalization. The third chapter presents a conceptual model for the cartographic generalization process within a digital environment. The generalization process described answers the questions why we generalize, when to generalize & how to generalize. The fourth & fifth chapters identify & describe the basic operators & algorithms used in map generalization for both the vector & raster data models of feature representation. The final chapter reviews current activities & future research directions including the application of expert systems, neural networks & advanced user interfaces for developing a newer generation of generalization software.
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems, Vol. 26, 2019. Special Issue: Social Neutrosophy in Latin America by Florentin Smarandache,Mohamed Abdel-Basset,Maikel Leyva Vazquez Pdf
The Latin American Neutrosophic Science Association was created in 2018 as a result of the initiative of a group of university professors from Mexico and Ecuador. The Association has developed an intense work in the investigative context, expression of the capacity that neutrosophy has as a tool for understanding and transformation of reality in social benefit. Neutrosophic sets as a generalization fuzzy set (especially intuitionistic fuzzy sets), allows handling a greater number of situations that occur in reality and becomes a facilitator of the approach to the studied object without undermining its complex and multivariate essence. In this special edition, researchers from six Ecuadorian universities show the results of research projects addressing a wide range of topics related to the social environment of these Higher Education Institutions. The contents include law, criminology, public and administrative management, evaluation of pedagogical scenarios, prospective analysis, artificial intelligence, among other topics. They are many different texts with a common denominator, the social sciences, and their relationship with neutrosophy. The progress of these investigations originates a significant change in the ways of validating and reasoning the proposals, the appreciation of neutrality increases the interpretability and the inferential efficacy from the analysis of the results, which enunciates a methodological, perceptive and objective enrichment in the humanistic sciences in Latin American geographical region.
Neutrosophic Sets and Systems, Book Series, Vol. 26, 2019 by Florentin Smarandache,Mohamed Abdel-Basset Pdf
“Neutrosophic Sets and Systems” has been created for publications on advanced studies in neutrosophy, neutrosophic set, neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic probability, neutrosophic statistics that started in 1995 and their applications in any field, such as the neutrosophic structures developed in algebra, geometry, topology, etc.
Algorithmic Foundation of Multi-Scale Spatial Representation by Zhilin Li Pdf
With the widespread use of GIS, multi-scale representation has become an important issue in the realm of spatial data handling. Focusing on geometric transformations, this resource presents comprehensive coverage of the low-level algorithms available for the multi-scale representations of different types of spatial features, including point clusters, individual lines, a class of lines, individual areas, and a class of areas. It also discusses algorithms for multi-scale representation of 3-D surfaces and 3-D features. Containing over 250 illustrations to supplement the discussion, the book provides the most recent research results, such as raster-based work, algorithm improvements, snakes, wavelets, and empirical mode decomposition.
