Abstract:
Increasing demand for water in Wapuli and its environ led to a proposal to construct a pipeline to link the town to an existing water plant. This paper developed a geospatial model incorporating multi-criteria analysis involving technical factors such as slope, landcover, watercourses, distance to roads and soil types to determine a least-cost path for the pipeline. However, the first least-cost path passes through a tiny sacred grove near Moadani dam, necessitating the generation of a second least-cost path by considering sacred groves as constraint. The result showed that the least-cost path

Abstract. The feature categories of an orienteering map are prepared to allow the map reader to estimate the travel time between any two points on the map with a good approximation. This requires not only an accurate map, but also a key that adapts to the speed of travel. Such map key is developed and maintained by the IOF (International Orienteering Federation), and technically all the orienteering maps are compiled by using it. Estimated time also plays an important role in planning the courses of orienteering races. The course setter estimates time based on a route he thinks is ideal, but t

Abstract:
An important and frequently used tool in archaeological spatial analysis is least-cost path (LCP) analysis to compute routes connecting a set of targets. The outcome depends on the cost model chosen and the topographic data used. A slope-dependent cost model requires a digital elevation model (DEM) that should reflect the landscape in the past. It is often impossible to reconstruct the past terrain, and modern high-resolution elevation data results in problematic storage requirements and computation times.

Abstract A dynamic empirical cost structure analysis of the British Columbia interior softwood lumber industry was conducted using a variable cost approach.

The introduction of interrelated factor demand via a simple partial adjustment model affords the measurement of productivity decline and higher costs due to incomplete implicit adjust

Specifically, Dijkstra’s algorithm is used to calculate the least cost between initial voxels and all the other voxels in 3D space. During the calculation, unnecessary bends along the travel path are constantly corrected to retain the accurate least cost. Our results show that the proposed

Gullies—linear landforms, which dissect the landscape—are considered to be a cost for human movement, as they can form unpassable barriers destroying present path networks.

Abstract:
Road network deals with the development of a comprehensive plan for construction and operation of transportation facilities. In order to develop efficient and better transport facility, it is necessary to have a proper road network. In sustainable road network planning, planners put into consideration factors like gradients or slope, land-use and geology with community and governmental interest. These different considerations make the planning process complex and generate confusion in the decision making process. The use of geographic information system (GIS) and multi-criteria analysis (MCA)

Abstract:
AbstractThe black-and-white snub-nosed monkey Rhinopithecus bieti is endemic to China, where its population is fragmented into 15 isolated groups and threatened despite efforts to protect the species. Here we analyse possible habitat connectivity between the groups reported in Yunnan, using genetic, least-cost path and Euclidean distances. We detect genetic isolation between the northern and southern groups but not among the northern groups. We show that genetic distance is better explained by human disturbance and land-cover least-cost paths than by Euclidian distance. High-quality habitats w

Abstract. Using the Geographic Information System (GIS) technology, transportation and network analysis has become a straightforward application. An underlying problem in transportation and network analysis is to find optimal paths between different locations from sources to destination on a network. Sometimes this optimal path between source to destination has to be done in real-time. Several optimal path algorithms have been proposed by the researchers based on single parameter problem. In this paper, a multi-parameters based optimal path solution is proposed using GIS software for the trave

Abstract:
AbstractIn planning transmission lines with the use of Geographic Information Systems, the use of the Least Cost Path (LCP) algorithm has been established while relevant criteria are modeled using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). Despite their established use, this combination (MCDA/LCP) often leads to results that do not correspond to realistic conditions. Therefore, the MCDA/LCP computation must usually be optimized on an algorithmic level as well as on the decision model and the underlying data relevant for the MCDA. The current paper presents the state-of-the-art of an ongoing rese

Abstract:
The Old North Trail was the main north-to-south link running along the eastern flank of the Rocky Mountains, within the homeland of the Blackfoot people. While travelling along this trail, human groups stopped at resource patches and important landmarks, leaving evidence of their passing in the form of archaeological sites. This paper examines the historical and archaeological evidence for the Old North Trail and discusses use of least-cost path analysis within a geographic information system framework to model the route of the trail. Where differences exist between the location of least-cost
