Abstract:
Efficiency of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis mainly depends on the individual successes of its complementing components<br>such as source characterization and ground motion intensity prediction. This study contributes to major components of the seismic hazard workflow including magnitude &ndash<br>rupture dimension scaling relationships, and ground motion intensity prediction. The study includes revised independent models for predicting rupture dimensions in shallow crustal zones, accompanied by proposals for geometrically compatible rupture area-length-width models which satisfy the re

Abstract:
Federal, state and local governments are increasingly focused on the effects of development on water quality and quantity. With waterbodies being especially sensitive to certain pollutants, such as sediment and nutrients, regulations have been put in place to control the amount of pollutant that gets discharged. Sediment is a cause for concern as it originates during both rural and urban activities, and often carries other pollutants (metals, nutrients, etc.) with it. Existing erosion models focus primarily on estimating erosion from agricultural watersheds. Methods are needed to predict areas

Abstract:
Currently, the system that developing countries use to map coffee crops is expensive, tedious and inaccurate; therefore coffee maps cannot be updated frequently and production cannot be accurately estimated. If such countries could map coffee crops in a cost-effective way, they would have an advantage in terms of setting the prices and getting a higher return for their product. Here I hypothesize that coffee systems can be properly characterized and mapped using the spectral and spatial information derived from satellite images and topographic data. I also believe that during the spatial a

Abstract:
Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>Landslide susceptibility maps are important for development planning and disaster management. The current synthesis of landslide susceptibility maps largely applies GIS and remote sensing techniques. One of the most critical stages on landslide susceptibility mapping is the selection of landslide causative factors and weighting of the selected causative factors, in accordance to their influence to slope instability. GIS is ideal when deriving static factors i.e. slope and aspect and most importantly in the synthesis of landslide susceptibility ma

Abstract:
This research used a spatial skills test and cognitive-mapping test to examine the effect of GIS learning on the spatial ability and spatial problem solving of college students. A total of 80 participants, undergraduate students at Texas A&M University, completed pre- and post- spatial skills tests administered during the 2003 fall semester. Analysis of changes in the students’ test scores revealed that GIS learning could help students improve their spatial ability. Strong correlations existed between the participants’ spatial ability and their performance in the GIS course. The research als

Abstract:
Web documents such as news articles, social feeds, and blogs provide an abundant and readily available data source of spatial information relating to dynamic events such as wildfires, storms, and chemical spills. Research in the fields of geographic information retrieval and natural language processing use methods to extract place-names from web documents that can be used to geocode these events. However much of the spatial information in these articles are difficult to use because of the inherent vagueness of natural language. This thesis aims to develop methods to handle the vaguness of repr

L'elaborato tratta dell'evoluzione dei sistemi di raccolta dati geografici e mappatura grazie all'utilizzo delle tecnologie informatiche e di come sia cambiato il loro utilizzo nel corso del tempo e l'utenza che ne fa uso. Viene anche trattata in maniera tecnica la struttura che compone uno di questi sistemi per permettere l'interazione via web con una mappa digitale. Si effettuano inoltre ipotesi su possibili sviluppi futuri di tali tecnologie.

Abstract:
This thesis assesses approaches to population surface modeling by pulling together the benefits of reference gridded population data with local regression procedures and geographically weighted regression. This study provides a more detailed assessment of surface modelling accuracy than was achieved in any previous studies to assess factors which explain errors in the predictions. The primary aim of this thesis is to evaluate Martin’s (1989) population surface modeling approach and also design and implement a method using secondary data, suitable for application in England and Wales.
