Abstract:
Location plays an ever increasing role in modern web-based applications. Many of these applications leverage off-the-shelf search engine technology to provide interactive access to large collections of data. Unfortunately, these commodity search engines do not provide special support for location-based indexing and retrieval. Many applications overcome this constraint by applying geographic bounding boxes in conjunction with range queries. We propose an alternative technique based on geographic identifiers and suggest it will yield faster query evaluation and provide higher search precision. O

Artificial Intelligence Lab, Department of MIS, University of Arizona<br>This paper summarizes a prototype geographical image retrieval system that demonstrates how to integrate image processing and information analysis techniques to support large-scale content-based image retrieval. By using an image as its interface, the prototype system addresses a troublesome aspect of traditional retrieval models, which require users to have complete knowledge of the low-level features of an image. In addition we describe an experiment to validate the performance of this image retrieval system ag

Abstract:
This study addresses the question of time efficiency of two major models within Information Retrieval (IR): the Extended Boolean Model (EBM) and the Vector Space Model (VSM). Both models use the same weighting scheme, based on term-frequency-inverse document frequency (tf-idf). The VSM uses a cosine score computation to rank the document-query similarity. In the EBM, P-norm scores are used, which ranks documents not just by matching terms, but also by taking the Boolean interconnections between the terms in the query into account. Additionally, this study investigates how documents with a sing

Abstract:
Decisions are made with varying degrees of effectiveness and efficiency and are influenced by a myriad of internal and external forces. Decision Support Systems (DSS) software can effectively aid decision making through processing the facts and producing meaningful outputs for use by the person or team in making the final choice. Geographic Information Systems (GIS), a form of DSS, are very effective when locational data are present. This thesis talks about using GIS software in decision making procedures.

The rigorous developments of GIS over the past decades have enabled application developers to create powerful systems that are used to facilitate the management of spatial data.

Abstract:
abstract: Accounting for over a third of all emerging and re-emerging infections, viruses represent a major public health threat, which researchers and epidemiologists across the world have been attempting to contain for decades. Recently, genomics-based surveillance of viruses through methods such as virus phylogeography has grown into a popular tool for infectious disease monitoring. When conducting such surveillance studies, researchers need to manually retrieve geographic metadata denoting the location of infected host (LOIH) of viruses from public sequence databases such as GenBank and an

Abstract:
A GIS analysis procedure was developed to explore relationships between imagery, yield data, soil information, and other assessments of a field or orchard. A set of conversion utilities, a spreadsheet, and an inexpensive shape file viewer were used to manipulate, plot, and display data. Specific features described include procedures used to: 1) display automated yield monitoring and aerial imagery data as surface maps for visual analysis, 2) generate maps from gridded soil sampling schemes that display either the collected soil data values or management information derived from further manipul

Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Geospatial Technologies<br>Datasets produced or collected by governments are being made publicly available for re-use. Open government data portals help realize such reuse by providing list of datasets and links to access those datasets. This ensures that users can search, inspect and use the data easily. With the rapidly increasing size of datasets in open government data portals, just like it is the case with the web, nding relevant datasets with a query of few keywords is a challen

Abstract:
This thesis investigates automatic geolocation (i.e. identification of the location, expressed as latitude/longitude coordinates) of documents. Geolocation can be an effective means of summarizing large document collections and is an important component of geographic information retrieval. We describe several simple supervised methods for document geolocation using only the document’s raw text as evidence. All of our methods predict locations in the context of geodesic grids of varying degrees of resolution. We evaluate the methods on geotagged Wikipedia articles and Twitter feeds. For Wikiped
