Abstract:

Aerial photography is an important layer in Geographic Information Systems (GISs), and generally provides the base layer from which many other digital map layers are derived. Capturing these photos from a traditional full-sized airplane is a complex and expensive process. The recent development of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and associated technology are providing an alternative to the traditional aerial mapping process. UAVs produced by popular commercial vendors are effective at capturing photos, but are highly expensive to acquire, and equally expensive to maintain.

This research project demonstrates the development and successful implementation of a relatively inexpensive ($2000) unmanned aerial vehicle capable of acquiring high-resolution digital aerial photography. The UAV was developed using open source technology and commercially available components. The methods outlined encompass the platform selection, component inventory, design, construction, configuration, implementation, and testing of the UAV, as well as an analysis of the photography produced by the process. This approach can be used by others to implement similar UAV projects.

Abstract:
To date aerial photography and associated photogrammetric and photo-interpretation techniques have played but a limited role in the planning process. In this study their dual role (i) as a base medium and (ii) as a source of data is investigated bearing in mind the requirements of planning data and certain inherent defects of conventional maps in the planning process. Having considered certain pertinent technical aspects of aerial photography and associated techniques, especially modern developments such as orthophotos, use of multi-emulsion photography, automated data extraction and automated data processing techniques, the application of these techniques is discussed in greater detail in respect of the dual role mentioned earlier. Aerial photographs are shown to be of considerable value to the planner as an analytic tool and a powerful source of data when dealing with such topics as feasibility studies, land use, resource surveys, urban and regional research and analysis, urban history, urban and rural administration, site evaluation, transportation and other. branches of engineering, urban sociology and economics, as well as urban aesthetics. Aerial photographic data adequately meets the data requirements of the planning process and furthermore lends itself to modern automatic data processing methods. The modern improved forms of photography, i.e. photomaps, orthophotos, etc. have definite advantages over conventional maps insofar as a base medium in planning is concerned, and the wider use of aerial photographs and products is anticipated when planners become more aware of their universal application and versatility.

Abstract:
American urban neighborhoods are a patchwork; the spatial arrangement of types is a reflection of the dominant transportation technology at the time of their development. The earliest suburban areas were made accessible by fixed route systems such as the electric streetcar, followed by the widespread adoption of the automobile; each transportation epoch resulted in characteristic patterns of land use. This study uses aerial photographic coverage of Portland, Oregon from the years 1925, 1936, and 1945, a time of decline for the once popular trolley lines and dramatic increase in automobile usage, to monitor change within the residential areas of Portland's east side over a twenty year period. Classic economic models of the time acknowledged transportation as a force shaping the city; modem ideas in urban planning such as Traditional Neighborhood Design and Transit Oriented Development look to pre-automobile urban form as a means to reduce automobile use and its negative implications. This study uses variables of housing density and street connectivity derived from the aerial photography; the measured values of these variables are then considered for their spatial and temporal distribution using statistical comparisons. The results are compared to ideas within the urban models and current thinking about urban morphology. While generally consistent with the expected patterns, deviations and differences between the two variables are considered for their implications. Models offer a simplified version of the growth of American cities, considering only a few of the many aspects of a dynamic environment. By isolating on these variables of density and connectivity, a greater understanding of their role in arriving at the modem residential urban environment may be reached, and this understanding can add to the discourse in current planning debates.

Abstract:
Remote sensing technologies are used to assist in the mapping and monitoring of land cover in space and time. The European Space Agency’s (ESA) upcoming Sentinel-2 MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) to be launched in 2013 has improved spatial and spectral properties compared to the current large-swath medium-resolution satellite sensors. Prior to the deployment of future sensors it is important to simulate and test the sensor data to evaluate the sensor's potential performance in producing the existing data products and develop new algorithms. This study simulated Sentinel-2 MSI data from airborne hyperspectral data over an agriculture area in northern Alberta, Canada. The standard Sentinel-2 MSI land-cover product was evaluated by comparing it to one created from the standard Landsat 5 TM and SPOT 5 HRV data products. Furthermore the standard Sentinel-2 MSI water column content band configuration and algorithm was evaluated for atmospheric correction purposes.

Abstract:
abstract: Recent advances in geo-visualization technologies, such as Google Earth, have the potential to enhance spatial thinking. Google Earth is especially suited to teaching landforms and geomorphological processes in traditional, online, or hybrid college classroom settings. The excitement for the technology as a learning tool, however, must be tempered by the need to develop sound and supportive pedagogies. A fundamental gap in the geoscience education literature exists because learning experiences with Google Earth, from the perspective of the student, are not completely understood. This dissertation analyzes three case studies in college introductory physical geography (Chapters 2 and 4) and teacher education (Chapter 3) courses at Arizona State University where students completed an online (Chapter 2 and 3) laboratory that used Google Earth as the main tool for landform identification and interpretation, and a hardcopy laboratory and in-field exercise (Chapter 4) that compared Google Earth oblique with traditional stereopair air photo and planimetric perspectives. Gauging student performance in these tasks, along with their formative and summative opinions for `what it was like to learn this way', provide information as part of a feedback loop to develop and improve instructional scaffolding and best practices so that the focus remains on the content-to-be-learned and not the tool. These case studies show that, in general, prior use of Google Earth is usually not a limiting factor; multiple perspectives and supplemental visualizations of landforms with Google Earth's may enhance the learning experience; the hands-on nature of structured Google Earth exploration in these labs are virtual field trips that increase enjoyment and fit within a learner-centered curriculum; scaffolding landform-learning exercises for aspiring elementary school teachers linked to children's literature assists the development of content knowledge for teaching physical geography and spatial thinking; and, finally, despite a virtual globe's high-quality visualizations and promising potential for learning, there is still a role for stereopair images in the geomorphology classroom.

Dissertação de mestrado em Geociências (área de especialização em Dinâmica Externa e Mudanças Globais)
A zona costeira é um espaço físico com características únicas e especiais que a tornam diferente das restantes, com um dinamismo próprio condicionado pela intervenção de fenómenos naturais e antrópicos. Com os municípios do litoral tendem a atrair e fixar mais população, resultando no aumento da densidade populacional, um programa de monitorização eficaz torna-se assim ainda mais importante. A gestão destes setores litorais requer um profundo conhecimento das características iniciais do sistema para que seja possível prever o seu comportamento futuro e de modo a determinar os fatores que influenciam a dinâmica presente no litoral. Para este trabalho, selecionaram-se como áreas de estudo as praias de Belinho, de Cepães e do Fieiro Alto, pertencentes ao concelho de Esposende, com o objetivo de testar algumas técnicas de monitorização baseadas em veículos aéreos não tripulados. Este trabalho utilizou como base a fotografia aérea recolhida através de VANT, para aplicação de técnicas de fotogrametria e modelação 3D recorrendo ao software AgiSoft PhotoScanPro, levantamentos com um sistema móvel de GPS diferencial para ortorretificar os ortomosaicos e os modelos digitais de superfície (MDS) obtidos, e por fim tecnologias de Sistemas de Informação Geográfica para: - efetuar a medição de volumes de modo a obter balanços sedimentares através dos modelos 3D; - avaliar tendências evolutivas da morfodinâmica do sistema costeira; - criar uma base de dados, o mais completa possível, para futuros estudos e campanhas de monitorização; - demonstrar a eficácia e aplicabilidade dos modelos 3D, gerados através deste método de recolha de informação, para trabalhos neste setor. Os resultados obtidos permitem concluir que este método é bastante eficiente e fiável, sendo possível obter uma grande gama de informação bastante pormenorizada e de baixo custo. Todas as informações obtidas são ferramentas extremamente úteis e valiosas no que toca a gestão dos setores costeiros, podendo ser aplicados em diferentes âmbitos ambientais e científicos.
Unique and specific features that are different from other environments characterize coastal areas with their morphodynamics being controlled by both natural processes and human intervention. An efficient coastal survey program is very important once the majority of the population is living in coastal areas. The correct management of these areas should include a detailed knowledge of the initial system characteristics in order to assess the evolution and the causes that affect coastal dynamics. In this work low cost coastal survey methods were applied in Belinho, Cepães and Fieiro Alto beaches, in the municipality of Esposende (northwest Portugal). Aerial photography obtained by UAV, photogrammetry techniques and 3D models using specific software, GPS mobile mapping and GIS technologies were developed in order to: (i) show the utility, efficiency and quality of 3D models in coastal survey and analysis; (ii) assess the coastal morphodynamics and evolution; (iii) define sediment growths or losses through volume measurements using these tools; (iv) compile and provide data for future research and survey. The results from this work show that the methodology applied is highly reliable and exact with a reasonable amount of detailed data being produced with low cost procedures. In this scope, all the information obtained is a useful and valuable tool for local coastal management and the methods can be applied in different areas.

Abstract:
This study determines and predicts multi-temporal Land-Use-Land-Cover Change (LULC) in a peripheral urban landscape over a 22 year period in relation to the study area‘s greenery. A change detection analysis using post classification Maximum Likelihood algorithm on three multispectral SPOT-4 images was used to determine land-cover transformation. To predict future land coverage, a Land-Cover Change Modeler (LCM) and a Markov Chain were used. Results show that between the year 2000-2006, 2006-2011 and 2000-2011 the study area experienced varied changes in the different LULCs. Built-up areas increased by 10.08%, 3.15% and 13.23% in 2000-2006, 2006-2011, and 2000-2011 respectively. Areas covered by thicket decreased by 0.59% in 2000-2006 but increased by 0.56%, 0.07% in 2006-2011 and 2000-2011 respectively. Forest land-cover increased by 2.59% in 2000-2006, 2.82% in 2006-2011, and 5.41% in 2000-2011. Grassland declined by 8.46% and 2.64% in 2000-2006 and 2000-2011 respectively while degraded grassland declined by 3.62%, 12.45% and 16.07% in 2000-2006, 2006-2011, and 2000-2011 respectively. Projection results indicate a consistent pattern of growth or decline to those experienced between 2000-2011. This study provides insight into LULC patterns within the eThekwini metro area and offers invaluable understanding of the transformation of the urban green spaces. Key words: Land-Use-Land-Cover Change, Change detection, Land-Cover Change Modeler, Markov Chain Process, Land-Cover Change Prediction.

Abstract:
Dissertação de mestrado em Geociências (área de especialização em Dinâmica Externa e Mudanças Globais)
O litoral constitui um ambiente muito dinâmico e muito sensível a impactes naturais e antrópicos. Nas últimas décadas, no litoral do NW de Portugal tem ocorrido uma erosão generalizada, manifestada essencialmente por migração das praias para o interior, perda de sedimentos e recuo das arribas. Embora natural, este processo tem sido agravado pela ação humana, sobretudo como consequência da implementação de obras de defesa costeira. É neste contexto que existe a necessidade de monitorizar e criar uma base de informação precisa de modo a suportar o planeamento e a gestão adequada destas áreas. A obtenção de dados úteis, fiáveis e de grande precisão permite conhecer e prever a evolução costeira, assim como prevenir potenciais consequências de planeamento e gestão deficientes. Neste trabalho aplicaram-se métodos de monitorização costeira de baixo custo nas praias de Ofir e Bonança, no concelho de Esposende. A fotografia aérea foi obtida através de VANT, procedendo-se a técnicas de fotogrametria e de modelação 3D recorrendo a mapeamento móvel com GPS e tecnologias SIG para: (i) demonstrar a utilidade, eficiência e qualidade de modelos tridimensionais para trabalhos de monitorização da orla costeira, (ii) avaliar tendências evolutivas da morfodinâmica costeira com recurso a modelos tridimensionais, (iii) efetuar medições de volumes para estudo de balanços sedimentares recorrendo a modelos tridimensionais e (iv) complementar, criar e prover dados para futuros estudos de monitorização. A análise dos resultados comprova uma intensa dinâmica do sistema praia-duna, com transporte sedimentar predominantemente no sentido NW-SE, devido ao vento marinho e à perda de areia na zona de contato berma da praia-duna por toda a área de estudo, mas principalmente na praia de Ofir.
The coastal zone is characterized by its intense morphodynamics and by the sensitivity to natural and anthropic impacts. In the last decades, the NW Portugal coastal zone has suffered generalized erosion, mainly expressed by inland beaches migration, sediment loss e cliffs retreat. Despite being a natural occurrence, this erosion is being enhanced by human activities largely as a consequence of the construction of coastal defence structures. Therefore the survey and development of a precise database is need to support an accurate planning and management in these areas. The acquisition of useful, reliable and exact data is essential to better knowledge and prediction in coastal evolution as to prevent wrong planning and management decisions. In this work low cost coastal survey methods were applied in Ofir and Bonança beaches, in the municipality of Esposende (northwest Portugal). Aerial photography obtained by UAV, photogrammetry techniques and 3D models using specific software, GPS mobile mapping and GIS technologies were developed in order to: (i) show the utility, efficiency and quality of 3D models in coastal survey and analysis; (ii) assess the coastal morphodynamics and evolution; (iii) define sediment growths or losses through volume measurements using these tools; (iv) compile and provide data for future research and survey. The results show an intense dynamics in the beach-dune system with sedimentary transport occurring mainly from NW to SE. This is due to the predominant sea winds and to the sand loss in the contact between the beach and the dune. It occurs in all the studied area but mainly in the Ofir beach.
