Browsing the Scales - the Carto-change Project

چکیده
The CARTO-CHANGE project addresses the harmonization of existing land cover data (Advanced CORINE LC, CORINE LC and GLOBCOVER) and thereby two aspects: Firstly, the cartographic and statistical comparison of land cover information across different scales and resolutions, and secondly the timely identification of candidate land cover changes by using land cover and land use information derived from coarser resolution, but more frequent satellite data. The final objective of the service is a land cover change analysis, namely deriving ‘candidate’ land cover changes based on the harmonized land cover data sets. Major emphasis is put on the idea to compare LC data from frequently available EO data with medium resolution (GLOBCOVER) to finer resolved LC data that are less frequently produced (CORINE LC). To apply the methodology also to regional scale data, an approach is developed for the comparison of CORINE LC data and advanced CORINE LC data with higher geometric precision and thematic accuracy.

Compressed Domain Scene Change Detection Based on Transform Units Distribution in High Efficiency Video Coding Standard
Scene change detection plays an important role in a number of video applications, including video indexing, searching, browsing, semantic features extraction, and, in general, pre-processing and post-processing operations. Several scene change detection methods have been proposed in different coding standards. Most of them use fixed thresholds for the similarity metrics to determine if there wa...
متن کاملReflections on J.B. Harley's "Deconstructing the Map"
When asked to reflect on Brian Harley’s ‘‘Deconstructing the Map’’ (Harley 1989) for this special issue of Cartographica, I sat down on the sofa in my office and tried to recall my initial reading of and reaction to the article. What came to mind was less about articles, critiques, theories, or intellectual arguments and more about Harley the person, David Woodward and assorted graduate student...
متن کاملFlexion and Skewness in Map Projections of the Earth
Tissot indicatrices have provided visual measures of local area and isotropy distortions. Here we show how large scale distortions of flexion (bending) and skewness (lopsidedness) can be measured. Area and isotropy distortions depend on the map projection metric, flexion and skewness, which manifest themselves on continental scales, depend on the first derivatives of the metric. We introduce ne...
متن کاملSelf-Starting Control Chart and Post Signal Diagnostics for Monitoring Project Earned Value Management Indices
Earned value management (EVM) is a well-known approach in a project control system which uses some indices to track schedule and cost performance of a project. In this paper, a new statistical framework based on self-starting monitoring and change point estimation is proposed to monitor correlated EVM indices which are usually auto-correlated over time and non-normally distributed. Also, a new ...
