Abstract:
Data discovery and data handling often presents serious challenges to organizations that manage huge archives of raster datasets such as those generated by satellite remote sensing. Satellite remote sensing produces a regular stream of raster datasets used in many applications including environmental and agricultural monitoring. This thesis presents a system architecture for the management of time-series GIS raster datasets. The architecture is then applied in a prototype implementation for a department that uses remote sensing data for agricultural monitoring. The architecture centres on thre

Abstract:
Annual, seasonal, and daily discharge patterns determine many of the physical and biological properties of a stream. Natural short- and long-term variation of streamflow is part of the normal processes of a river or stream whereas artificial short- and long-term fluctuations can disrupt the natural processes of a river. It is critical to recognize and identify such artificial fluctuations and disturbances to have a more complete understanding of river systems. This understanding can be used to modify current management efforts to achieve more natural flow regimes. A new procedure using dual-ti

Abstract:
Strategies for generalizing raster-based land cover data were investigated. Generalization strategies were studied as part of the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) Federal Land Information System (FLIS). Area filtering, category aggregation, resampling, and modal search and replace comprised the strategies tested on USGS Alaska Interim Land Cover data. Generalization of the land cover data was deemed necessary for two reasons: 1) reduction in the volume of homogeneous land cover regions required for computer memory storage, and 2) simplification of the highly complex land cover map.

Abstract:
The United States Army Corp of Engineers relies on accurate and detailed surface models for various construction projects and preventative measures. To aid in these efforts, it is necessary to work for advancements in surface model creation. Current methods for model creation include Delaunay triangulation, raster grid interpolation, and Hydraulic Spline grid generation. While these methods produce adequate surface models, attempts for improved methods can still be made. A method for raster based spline creation is presented as a variation of the Hydraulic Spline algorithm. By implementing Hyd

Abstract:
The simple accumulation-based network identification method (ANIM) in a raster Geographic Information System (GIS) posed by Oâ Callaghan and Mark (1984) has been criticized for producing a spatially uniform drainage density (Tarboton 2002) at the watershed scale. This criticism casts doubt on the use of ANIMs for deriving properties such as overland flow length for nonpoint source pollution models, without calibrating the accumulation threshold value. However, the basic assumption that underlies ANIMs is that convergent topography will yield a more rapid accumulation of cells, and thus, mor

[Abstract]: The disposal of animal waste has become a problem in many parts of the world due to the rapid growth in the number and the size of intensive animal industries. Safe waste disposal sites are rarely available and the relocation and/or treatment of animal waste is seldom economically viable. The reuse of animal waste for energy recovery and re-feeding is also not popular. Animal waste is a valuable source of plant nutrients and a very good soil conditioner, and has been commonly applied as fertiliser to agricultural fields.

Wildfire hazard and its destructive consequences have become a growing issue around the world especially in the context of global warming. An effective and efficient fire simulation model will make it possible to predict the fire spread and assist firefighters in the process of controlling the damage and containing the fire area. Simulating wildfire spread remains challenging due to the complexity of fire behaviors. The raster-based method and the vector-based method are two major approaches that allow one to perform computerized fire spread simulation. In this thesis, we present a scheme we h

Despite increased recognition of wetland functions and values, wetland loss and degradation continues in the United States. Digital wetlands and uplands coverages were analyzed to compare the cumulative impacts of humans and beaver (Castor canadensis) on wetland types in the Chickahominy River watershed (Virginia, USA) from 1953 to 1994. A vector-based approach was used for data manipulation, and a raster-based approach was chosen to analyze geographic change over time.

Given a grid of cells, each having a value indicating its cost per unit area, a variant of the least-cost path problem is to find a corridor of a specified width connecting two termini such that its cost-weighted area is minimized. A computationally efficient method exists for finding such corridors, but as is the case with conventional raster-based least-cost paths, their incremental orientations are limited to a fixed number of (typically eight orthogonal and diagonal) directions, and therefore, regardless of the grid resolution, they tend to deviate from those conceivable on the Euclidean p
