The aging population has brought increased attention to the urgent need to address social isolation and health risks among the elderly. While previous research has established the positive effects of parks in promoting social interaction and health among older adults, further investigation is required to understand the complex relationships between perceptions of the park environment, social interaction, and elderly health. In this study, structural equation modeling (SEM) was employed to examine these relationships, using nine parks in Wuhan as a case study. The findings indicate that social interaction serves as a complete mediator between perceptions of the park environment and elderly health (path coefficients: park environment on social interaction = 0.45, social interaction on health = 0.46, and indirect effect = 0.182). Furthermore, the results of the multi-group SEM analysis revealed that the mediating effect was moderated by the pattern of social interaction (the difference test: the friend companionship group vs. the family companionship group (Z = 1.965 > 1.96)). Notably, family companionship had a significantly stronger positive impact on the health of older adults compared to friend companionship. These findings contribute to our understanding of the mechanisms through which urban parks support the physical and mental well-being of the elderly and provide a scientific foundation for optimizing urban park environments.

Human mobility data are crucial for transportation planning and congestion management. However, challenges persist in accessing and using raw mobility data due to privacy concerns and data quality issues such as redundancy, missing values, and noise. This research introduces an innovative GIS-based framework for creating individual-level long-term spatio-temporal mobility data at a city scale. The methodology decomposes and represents individual mobility by identifying key locations where activities take place and life patterns that describe transitions between these locations. Then, we present methods for extracting, representing, and generating key locations and life patterns from large-scale human mobility data. Using long-term mobility data from Shanghai, we extract life patterns and key locations and successfully generate the mobility of 30,000 virtual users over seven days in Shanghai. The high correlation (R² = 0.905) indicates a strong similarity between the generated data and ground-truth data. By testing the combination of key locations and life patterns from different areas, the model demonstrates strong transferability within and across cities, with relatively low RMSE values across all scenarios, the highest being around 0.04. By testing the representativeness of the generated mobility data, we find that using only about 0.25% of the generated individuals’ mobility is sufficient to represent the dynamic changes of the entire urban population on a daily and hourly resolution. The proposed methodology offers a novel tool for generating long-term spatiotemporal mobility patterns at the individual level, thereby avoiding the privacy concerns associated with releasing real data. This approach supports the broad application of individual mobility data in urban planning, traffic management, and other related fields.

Extracting geoscientific dataset names from the literature is crucial for building a literature–data association network, which can help readers access the data quickly through the Internet. However, the existing named-entity extraction methods have low accuracy in extracting geoscientific dataset names from unstructured text because geoscientific dataset names are a complex combination of multiple elements, such as geospatial coverage, temporal coverage, scale or resolution, theme content, and version. This paper proposes a new method based on the hierarchical temporal memory (HTM) model, a brain-inspired neural network with superior performance in high-level cognitive tasks, to accurately extract geoscientific dataset names from unstructured text. First, a word-encoding method based on the Unicode values of characters for the HTM model was proposed. Then, over 12,000 dataset names were collected from geoscience data-sharing websites and encoded into binary vectors to train the HTM model. We conceived a new classifier scheme for the HTM model that decodes the predictive vector for the encoder of the next word so that the similarity of the encoders of the predictive next word and the real next word can be computed. If the similarity is greater than a specified threshold, the real next word can be regarded as part of the name, and a successive word set forms the full geoscientific dataset name. We used the trained HTM model to extract geoscientific dataset names from 100 papers. Our method achieved an F1-score of 0.727, outperforming the GPT-4- and Claude-3-based few-shot learning (FSL) method, with F1-scores of 0.698 and 0.72, respectively.

This paper introduces an intelligent model that combines military expertise with the latest advancements in machine learning (ML) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to support humanitarian demining decision-making processes, by predicting mined areas and classifying them by mine type, difficulty and priority of clearance. The model is based on direct input and validation from field decision-makers for their practical applicability and effectiveness, and accurate historical demining data extracted from military databases. With a survey polling the inputs of demining experts, 95% of the responses came with an affirmation of the potential of the model to reduce threats and increase operational efficiency. It includes military-specific factors that factor in the proximity to strategic locations as well as environmental variables like vegetation cover and terrain resolution. With Gradient Boosting algorithms such as XGBoost and LightGBM, the accuracy rate is almost 97%. Such precision levels further enhance threat assessment, better allocation of resources, and around a 30% reduction in the cost and time of conducting demining operations, signifying a strong synergy of human expertise with algorithmic precision for maximal safety and effectiveness in demining.

Guaranteeing efficient evacuations in urban communities is critical for preserving lives, minimizing disaster impacts, and promoting community resilience. Challenges such as high population density, limited evacuation routes, and communication breakdowns complicate evacuation efforts. Vulnerable populations, urban infrastructure constraints, and the increasing frequency of disasters further contribute to the complexity. Despite these challenges, the importance of timely evacuations lies in safeguarding human safety, enabling rapid disaster response, preserving critical infrastructure, and reducing economic losses. Overcoming these hurdles necessitates comprehensive planning, investment in resilient infrastructure, effective communication strategies, and continuous community engagement to foster preparedness and enhance evacuation efficiency. This research looks into the complexities of evacuation dynamics within urban residential areas, placing a particular focus on the interaction between joint-rental arrangements and family ties and their influence on evacuation strategies during emergency situations. Using agent-based modeling, evacuation simulation scenarios are implemented using the Changhongfang community (Shanghai) while systematically exploring how diverse interpersonal relationships impact the efficiency of evacuation processes. The adopted methodology encompasses a series of group experiments designed to determine the optimal proportions of joint-rental occupants within the community. Furthermore, the research examines the impact of various exit selection strategies on evacuation efficiency. Simulation outcomes shed light on the fundamental role of interpersonal factors in shaping the outcomes of emergency evacuations. Additionally, this study emphasizes the critical importance of strategic exit selections, revealing their potential to significantly enhance overall evacuation efficiency in urban settings.

Exposure to PM2.5 pollution poses substantial health risks, with the precise quantification of exposure being fundamental to understanding the environmental inequalities therein. However, the absence of high-resolution spatiotemporal ambient population data, coupled with an insufficiency of attribute data, impedes a comprehension of the environmental inequality of exposure risks at a fine scale. Within the purview of a conceptual framework that interlinks social strata and citizenship identity with environmental inequality, this study examines the environmental inequality of PM2.5 exposure with a focus on the city of Xi’an. Quantitative metrics of the social strata and citizenship identities of the ambient population are derived from housing price data and mobile phone big data. The fine-scale estimation of PM2.5 concentrations is predicated on the kriging interpolation method and refined by leveraging an advanced dataset. Employing geographically weighted regression models, we examine the environmental inequality pattern at a fine spatial scale. The key findings are threefold: (1) the manifestation of environmental inequality in PM2.5 exposure is pronounced among individuals of varying social strata and citizenship identities within our study area, Xi’an; (2) nonlocal residents situated in the northwestern precincts of Xi’an are subject to the most pronounced PM2.5 exposure; and (3) an elevated socioeconomic status is identified as an attenuating factor, capable of averting the deleterious impacts of PM2.5 exposure among nonlocal residents. These findings proffer substantial practical implications for the orchestration of air pollution mitigation strategies and urban planning initiatives. They suggest that addressing the wellbeing of the marginalized underprivileged cohorts, who are environmentally and politically segregated under the extant urban planning policies in China, is of critical importance.

User−generated geo−tagged photos (UGPs) have emerged as a valuable tool for analyzing large−scale tourist place emotions with unprecedented detail. This process involves extracting and analyzing human emotions associated with specific locations. However, previous studies have been limited to analyzing individual faces in the UGPs. This approach falls short of representing the contextual scene characteristics, such as environmental elements and overall scene context, which may contain implicit emotional knowledge. To address this issue, we propose an innovative computational framework for global tourist place emotion analysis leveraging UGPs. Specifically, we first introduce a Multi−view Graph Fusion Network (M−GFN) to effectively recognize multi−view emotions from UGPs, considering crowd emotions and scene implicit sentiment. After that, we designed an attraction−specific emotion index (AEI) to quantitatively measure place emotions based on the identified multi−view emotions at various tourist attractions with place types. Complementing the AEI, we employ the emotion intensity index (EII) and Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) to deepen the exploration of the association between attraction types and place emotions. The synergy of AEI, EII, and PCC allows comprehensive attraction−specific place emotion extraction, enhancing the overall quality of tourist place emotion analysis. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our framework enhances existing place emotion analysis methods, and the M−GFN outperforms state−of−the−art emotion recognition methods. Our framework can be adapted for various geo−emotion analysis tasks, like recognizing and regulating workplace emotions, underscoring the intrinsic link between emotions and geographic contexts.

The geoscience knowledge graph (GeoKG) has gained worldwide attention due to its ability in the formal representation of spatiotemporal features and relationships of geoscience knowledge. Currently, a quantitative review of the state and trends in GeoKG is still scarce. Thus, a bibliometric analysis was performed in this study to fill the gap. Specifically, based on 294 research articles published from 2012 to 2023, we conducted analyses in terms of the (1) trends in publications and citations; (2) identification of the major papers, sources, researchers, institutions, and countries; (3) scientific collaboration analysis; and (4) detection of major research topics and tendencies. The results revealed that the interest in GeoKG research has rapidly increased after 2019 and is continually expanding. China is the most productive country in this field. Co-authorship analysis shows that inter-national and inter-institutional collaboration should be reinforced. Keyword analysis indicated that geoscience knowledge representation, information extraction, GeoKG construction, and GeoKG-based multi-source data integration were current hotspots. In addition, several important but currently neglected issues, such as the integration of Large Language Models, are highlighted. The findings of this review provide a systematic overview of the development of GeoKG and provide a valuable reference for future research.

The widespread use of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology has led to a surge in three-dimensional point cloud data; although, it also poses challenges in terms of data storage and indexing. Efficient storage and management of LiDAR data are prerequisites for data processing and analysis for various LiDAR-based scientific applications. Traditional relational database management systems and centralized file storage struggle to meet the storage, scaling, and specific query requirements of massive point cloud data. However, NoSQL databases, known for their scalability, speed, and cost-effectiveness, provide a viable solution. In this study, a 3D point cloud indexing strategy for mobile LiDAR point cloud data that integrates Hilbert curves, R*-trees, and B+-trees was proposed to support MongoDB-based point cloud storage and querying from the following aspects: (1) partitioning the point cloud using an adaptive space partitioning strategy to improve the I/O efficiency and ensure data locality; (2) encoding partitions using Hilbert curves to construct global indices; (3) constructing local indexes (R*-trees) for each point cloud partition so that MongoDB can natively support indexing of point cloud data; and (4) a MongoDB-oriented storage structure design based on a hierarchical indexing structure. We evaluated the efficacy of chunked point cloud data storage with MongoDB for spatial querying and found that the proposed storage strategy provides higher data encoding, index construction and retrieval speeds, and more scalable storage structures to support efficient point cloud spatial query processing compared to many mainstream point cloud indexing strategies and database systems.

We evaluated the efficacy of chunked point cloud data storage with MongoDB for spatial querying and found that the proposed storage strategy provides higher data encoding, index construction and retrieval speeds, and more scalable storage structures to support efficient point cloud spatial query processing compared to many mainstream point cloud indexing strategies and database systems.","PeriodicalId":48738,"journal":{"name":"ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141611068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
Urban green spaces are an indispensable part of the ecology of cities, serving as the city’s “purifier” and playing a crucial role in promoting sustainable urban development. Therefore, the refined classification of urban green spaces is an important task in urban planning and management. Traditional methods for the refined classification of urban green spaces heavily rely on expert knowledge, often requiring substantial time and cost. Hence, our study presents a multi-label image classification model based on MobileViT. This model integrates the Triplet Attention module, along with the LSTM module, to enhance its label prediction capabilities while maintaining its lightweight characteristic for standalone operation on mobile devices. Trial outcomes in our UGS dataset in this study demonstrate that the approach we used outperforms the baseline by 1.64%, 3.25%, 3.67%, and 2.71% in mAP,F1,precision, and recall, respectively. This indicates that the model can uncover the latent dependencies among labels to enhance the multi-label image classification device’s performance. This study provides a practical solution for the intelligent and detailed classification of urban green spaces, which holds significant importance for the management and planning of urban green spaces.
