Abstract:

A typical feature of the digital economy is the transformation of business models in all sectors of the economy under the influence of the development of digital technologies, the diffusion of different classes of artificial intelligence solutions. In the automotive industry, the driver of such transformations are unmanned vehicle control systems and the growing influence of the “mobility as a service” (MaaS) paradigm, which has gained particular popularity in recent years. The growing MaaS market and the shift of consumer value from the ownership model to the use model form a new mobility, ac

Abstract:

This paper discusses the evidence for “corpse roads” in early modern Britain. Corpse roads were route ways used by funeral parties to transport the deceased from the place of death to the place of final interment. In some cases, some routes took on localised symbolic or folkloric significance, and in a few cases, this is preserved in the present day in contemporary route names, tourism and on modern maps. This paper reviews the evidence for corpse roads, and the methodologies needed to interrogate that evidence. These methodologies are drawn from folklore, ethnology, archaeology and history. T

Drawing on a range of primary and secondary sources pertaining to military roads and King’s Houses, this paper highlights the significance of space and material culture during the century of conflict, mobility, and cultural assimilation that drew the Scottish Highlands and Gaelic culture into the nation-state of Great Britain.

King’s Houses were central to the narrative

Abstract:

Written by the acclaimed Australian poet Kenneth Slessor, “Post-roads” is the second poem of his sequence The Atlas and of his collection Cuckooz Contrey (1932), in which it debuted. Like the other four Atlas poems, “Post-roads” begins with a quote from a prominent seventeenth-century map-maker; in this case, John Ogilby (1600–1676)—the celebrated British publisher, surveyor, and cartographer. Slessor not only transformed Ogilby’s work (and portrait) into poetic images, but made Ogilby’s “tireless ghost” the central character of his poem.

Abstract: Daniel Defoe's novels are informed by his fear of isolation. This article argues that his major work of travel writing, A Tour thro' the Whole Island of Great Britain (3 volumes, 1724–6), highlights a solution to this anxiety. The work is constructed around a sequence of thirteen tours that chart his movement through the varied landscapes and urban centers of the newly united kingdom. In this way, England specifically is characterized as a mobile society, accentuated by Defoe's close narration of the emerging toll road system. It is this concern with the infrastructure of roads and r

Abstract:

Henry De la Beche's leadership of the Geological Survey of Great Britain in the second quarter of the nineteenth century led to the establishment of a number of key institutions which ensured the Survey of survival beyond the initial phase of geological mapmaking. Considered as a finite activity serving only to fix on paper the spatial distribution of an unchanging physical resource, geological mapmaking alone was never a secure basis for institutional or disciplinary development. The actions taken by De la Beche in the 1830s and 1840s, at a time when public and politicians alike were suspicio

Abstract Both China and Arab countries are great nations with long histories and splendid cultures. The Silk Road and the Spice Road are great transportation projects jointly created by people of all countries. These two roads were the main routes for concecting China with Arab countries, and the main artery for connecting the West and the East. China and Arabia have long-term friendly exchanges, and thus have close cultural relations. The Chinese and Arab people learn from each other to enrich and develop their respective cultures. The historical process of developing friendly relations betwe

Abstract:

Road extraction from remote sensing images is of great significance to urban planning, navigation, disaster assessment, and other applications. Although deep neural networks have shown a strong ability in road extraction, it remains a challenging task due to complex circumstances and factors such as occlusion. To improve the accuracy and connectivity of road extraction, we propose an inner convolution integrated encoder-decoder network with the post-processing of directional conditional random fields. Firstly, we design an inner convolutional network which can propagate information slice-by-sl

Abstract:

Abstract The most important study of the topographic background to Daniel Defoe’s Tour thro’ Great Britain (1724–1726) is still one written by the historical geographer J. H. Andrews in 1960. This article seeks to amplify what Andrews says about two aspects of the subject: the use that the author made of maps in compiling his work, and his recourse to the text of topographic volumes, including atlases and guides. On the first issue, the evidence corroborates what Andrews suggested about the use of maps in the Tour, but it shows that Defoe enlisted their aid more widely than previously suspecte

ABSTRACT Roads provide the main means of transportation in Brazil. According to data from the Brazilian Department of Infrastructure and Transport, 96.2% of the passenger transportation and 61.8% of the cargo transportation are based on road infrastructure. However, three quarters of the Brazilian roads are in terrible, unsatisfactory or generally inadequate condition. Poor road conditions are responsible for a great number of accidents with severe consequences for the population and the environment. Given the importance of this matter, there is a need to develop an intelligent system for auto

Abstract:

The Great War was indeed a world war. Imperial powers like Great Britain drew on their far-flung empires not only for resources but also for manpower. This essay examines one important (though still inadequately studied) aspect of British wartime exigency, the voluntary and coerced participation of the British Empire's coloured subjects and allies in military operations on the Western Front. With the exception of the Indian Army in the first year of the war, that participation did not include combat. Instead coloured troops, later joined by contract labourers, played major roles behind the lin

Road surface survey is critical for road engineers to determine the needs of maintenance and rehabilitation for both network and project level study. This paper reviews the road surface survey methods, including image based, photogrammetric and stereo-vision, and mobile mapping systems. The merits and demerits of each method are outlined. The goal of this study is to develop simple software for facilitating the generation of the necessary road surface and distresses maps using surveying data from different sources. The software output has compatibility with known CAD/GIS packages to widen its

Abstract Previous work examining the interactions between people and their physical environment in the U.S. West has tended to neglect the spatial scale between individual sites, such as settlements and regions. This study seeks a solution to this problem by testing the methods of landscape history in three case studies in the State of Colorado. The use of historical maps alongside other manuscript sources reveals that western landscapes provide a fruitful arena for such work. For instance, it is possible to show that there is great variation in human settlement and land use within individual

The article considers the possibilities of mapping the anthropogenic impact on the landscapes of the Ak-Buura River basin using remote sensing and GIS data. Ak-Buura is a river of great importance in providing drinking and irrigation water to the city of Osh and most of the Osh agglomeration. The growth in the number and recreational needs of the population, the development of minerals, the construction of new roads and the reconstruction of highways have repeatedly increased the burden on natural resources in recent years. As a result, an increase in the intensity of land use for economic nee
