Abstract Open-source data is open for anyone and everyone access, modification, reuse, sharing particular application. compiled from various sources using public user collaboration. Open street map one of open-source vector provider. The suitability study the use production topographic maps scales important as a new approach. importance feasibility can help improve efficiency mapping products. ...

qualitative data to construct theories ‘grounded’ in the data themselves...” (Charmaz 2006, p.2). According to Glaser and Strauss (1967) Grounded Theory Methods (GTM) represent a rigorous set of practices for exploring a new domain or a domain which lacks a dominant theory. However, Grounded Theory (GT) is not just a set of procedures to be followed in a study, but an approach which supports th...

In experience-based (or case-based) reasoning, new problems are solved by retrieving and adapting the solutions to similar problems encountered in the past. An important issue in experience-based reasoning is to identify diierent types of knowledge and reasoning useful for diierent classes of case-adaptation tasks. In this paper, we examine a class of non-routine case-adaptation tasks that invo...

It has been argued that the unprecedented availability of trace data may revolutionize the social sciences. Still, methodological knowledge is scarce as to how this abundance of data can be used to develop novel and important theory. In this essay, we inquire into how the lessons learned from Grounded Theory Method (GTM) can be used to build theory from big data. To do so, we review GTM in ligh...

The e-co-housing project aims to develop and test tools supporting a participatory process from the design brief to the real operation of a housing project (e.g. neighbourhood construction, apartment building renovation). The partners are IFIB (Germany), SINTEF (Norway), DHV (The Netherlands), GTM (France) and ARMINES/ENSMP (France, coordinator). Methods for innovative property development (e.g...

The carbon mitigation literature has separately considered using forests to store carbon and as a source of bioenergy. In this paper, we look at both options to reach a 2°C mitigation target. This paper combines the global forest model, GTM, with the IAM WITCH model to study the optimal use of forestland to reach an aggressive global mitigation target. The analysis confirms that using both opti...

We propose a method for non-linear data projection that combines Generative Topographic Mapping and Coordinated PCA. We extend the Generative Topographic Mapping by using more complex nodes in the network: each node provides a linear map between the data space and the latent space. The location of a node in the data space is given by a smooth nonlinear function of its location in the latent spa...

For the rest of the semester we will discuss representations of groups, mostly finite groups. An elementary treatment would start with characters and their computation. But the Wedderburn structure theorem will allow us to start at a higher level which will give more meaning to the character tables which we will be constructing. This is from Lang, XVIII, §1-7 with additional material from Serre...

Grounded theory methodology (GTM), with its espoused goal of theory development of novel phenomena, has found broad application in Information Systems (IS) research. To investigate how GTM is applied in IS research and how the research contributions are contingent on those applications, we review 43 GTM-based articles in major IS and related journals. Ten of the articles develop theory. The oth...
