Locusts are a kind of primary pests that cause severe damage to the agriculture in Xinjiang, northwest of China. Early forecasting probable sites of locust outbreaks are very important for rangeland management and agricultural protection. This study promoted a GIS-based model combining with multi-criteria analysis to predict the possible area where locust might outbreak. Factors including monthly average temperature, monthly relative humidity, elevation, slope, NDVI and soil PH value were used in this model. The results showed that the locusts were mainly distributed in the north and west part of Xinjiang, which was highly consistent with the actual locust distribution. The average accuracy was 84.37%, and the highest accuracy that appeared in Urumqi reached 97.25%. The average empowering weight method is more suitable for this study as the accuracies are both higher than 90% in 2011 and 2012. Hence, this model was able to predict the probable sites of locust outbreak in Xinjiang, which would provide valuable information to locust control and prevention authorities.

The effective organization and management of POI data is an important basis for map service. In order to complete the auto-completion function, when users input some keywords part of an POI names to get some full name response, to improve the searching efficiency of Chinese POI data, we take the Chinese POI names as strings which are of high similarity and designed an effective data indexing method for Chinese POI names on the basis of a data structure--radix tree. So this work mainly deals with the approximate string search in large amounts of Chinese POI name strings. We present how to preprocess the Chinese POI name strings and store them in the radix tree. We then give an example to describe the procedure of input keyword string query based on the constructed radix tree of some Chinese POI names. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, we also analyzed the other two string query algorithms which are based on trie tree and ternary search tree respectively. We compare the performances between them from the perspective of time complexity and space complexity. Our results show that: 1) the performance of the POI search algorithm based on the radix tree is better than the other two algorithms both in the time complexity and space complexity for the Chinese POI names data; 2) the performance stability of the POI data search algorithm based on the radix tree is better than the latter two. The use of this kind of index mechanism makes the efficiency of Chinese POI data query respond well in Map Service which will have a promising future.

In this paper, we present a method for extracting area features of canals using high resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM) based on geometry from analysis on section lines. The method includes four steps: (1) plotting section lines in four certain directions, (2) segment the section lines according to their tendency, (3) determine the candidate feature points according to the segments in step 3 on four different directions separately, and (4) extract final canal feature points using the combination of candidate feature points on four directions. This paper also applies this method to extracting canals in a floodplain in Dongting Lake Basin. Experiment results show that our method is appropriate for extraction of area features of manual canal systems in plain area. Besides, we analyze this method's sensibility to DEM horizontal resolution by comparing the extraction results from three DEM data with different horizontal resolution.

Disease risk assessment plays an important role in controlling the diffusion of infectious diseases. It needs a large number of environmental, social, and economic development data in order to discover the pathogenic factors of a given disease. However, the conventional disease risk assessment is carried out mainly through the analysis of geographic data and non-geographic data released by officials. The assessment falls far behind the propagation of the diseases. To address the issue of government data lagging, we propose a disease risk assessment framework using the open source data. Our proposed framework includes five sections: Automatic Data Discovery, Data Organization, Computing resource calling, Model selection and Visualization. The process of data discovery and organization can be done automatically. Distributed computing resources are used and users can select the spatial analysis models interactively for prediction and visualization. The rabies disease example is implemented using the proposed framework and verifies the effectiveness and efficiency of our framework by good results.

The camera calibration is a hot issue in the field of photogrammetry. A chessboard plane is introduced to simplify the difficulty of calibration. In this paper, first, corners of chessboard are detected by Harris. Then, geometrical relationships are calculated between image plane and the three-dimensional space. Finally, the intrinsic and external parameters of the camera are calibrated based on camera model. Experimental results show that the method is effective.

With the rapid evolvement of mobile and cloud technology, the cost of collecting and studying human behavior data is largely reduced. Geo-location data is probably the most important and interesting data that vendors and researchers care about when their designed apps are being used. If an organization maintains several apps, and it wants to monitor the geo-location trend of each app's usage, it will be chaotic and redundant to implement geo-location logging module for every individual app. Instead, it's much cleaner to encapsulate geo-location logging component into SDKs, and centralize the reporting portals into the same cloud service. In this paper, we propose an approach of Modularization SDK Implementation and Cloud reporting architecture, to enable Mobile apps with sensor information logging and reporting by inserting one single line of code. We also use Geo-Location logging as an example and explain how it works on iOS and Android platforms. Our approach can bring several advantages including removing redundant implementation of function modules and bringing more scalability on backend reporting.

Based on Linear Spectral Mixture Model (LSMM), Zonal Statistic, Transect analyses, and Transformation analyses of urban land cover, we extracted out the Impervious Surface Coverage (ISC) of Changsha metropolitan area in 2005, 2009, and 2013, and analyzed its spatiotemporal patterns in 2005-2013. The results were: (1) we reported that increasing and improving proportion of dark vegetation can reduce the misclassification of low albedo and shadow. (2) The main increase of ISC in Changsha metropolitan area was in 20052009. Impervious surface expanded from the center to all around. The construction of urban greenspace was paid closely attention in 2009-2013. (3) The transformation between impervious surface and vegetation appeared mainly in downtown and counties. The transform from soil to impervious surface mainly arose in 20052009. (4) The Impervious Surface Coverage (ISC) and Land Surface Temperature (LST) had linear relationship in Changsha Metropolitan Area. The primary reason for the rising of urban land surface temperature (LST) was high density of impervious surface, not low density and scattered ones.

Cold-water coral Lophelia pertusa is the most common reef framework-forming species in the North Atlantic, which builds complex reef structures supporting a high diversity of benthic species. L. pertusa reef is vulnerable to anthropogenic impact. Mapping L. pertusa distribution is fundamental for resource management, but challenging given the typical remoteness of their habitat. In this study, we used MaxEnt to predict the potential distribution of L. pertusa at the Røst Reef on Norwegian margin, based on terrain variables at multiple scales (30, 90 and 170 m). MaxEnt performed well in each of the ten runs, and successfully predicted the potential distribution of L. pertusa at Røst Reef. The suitable habitat of L. pertusa was predicted to occur predominantly on the SW-NE running ridges. Jackknife tests indicated that the terrain variables mean curvature and plan curvature at scale 170 m were the most useful parameters in prediction when used in isolation. The ridge structures at Røst Reef are likely to play an important role in influencing the coral distribution by enhancing the bottom current, therefore beneficial for feeding of the species.

The ridge structures at Røst Reef are likely to play an important role in influencing the coral distribution by enhancing the bottom current, therefore beneficial for feeding of the species.","PeriodicalId":371399,"journal":{"name":"2015 23rd International Conference on Geoinformatics","volume":"156 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125773985","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
