This paper investigates the potential information provided to the user by the uncertainty measures applied to the possibility distributions associated with the spatial units of an IKONOS satellite image, generated by two fuzzy classifiers, based, respectively, on the Nearest Neighbour Classifier and the Minimum Distance to Means Classifier. The deviation of the geographic unit characteristics f...

Social responsibility is a key factor that could result in success and achieving great benefits for supply chains. Responsiveness and reliability are important social responsibility measures for consumers and all stakeholders that strategists and company managers should be concerned about them in long-term planning horizon. Although, presence of uncertainties as an intrinsic part of supply chai...

This paper explores a methodology for quantifying the uncertainty of DEMs created by digitising topographic maps. The origins of uncertainty in DEM production were identified and examined. The uncertainty of DEM data was quantified by computing a vector total of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) from the source map, sampling and measurement errors, and the interpolation process. Distributional meas...
