To create the final spatial information and analysis, flood hazard maps and land development priority maps and information, data for the flood events to 2009 in north of Iran were incorporated with using Geo-spatial Information System data of physiographic divisions, geologic divisions, land cover classification, elevation, drainage network, administrative districts and population density and e...

We present YumiInt a deep Web integration system for local search engines for Geo-referenced objects. YumiInt consists of two systems: YumiDev and YumiMeta. YumiDev is an off-line integration system that builds the key components (e.g., query translation and entity resolution) of YumiMeta. YumiMeta is the Web application to which users post queries. It translates queries to multiple sources and...

Automatic change detection and updating road networks is a key work for updating geo-spatial information especially in developing countries. Old GIS data can make road networks detection and extraction easier. However, detailed strategy and algorithms of automatic change detection for road networks based on GIS is not discussed in detail. Aiming at this, a strategy for automatic change detectio...

Deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have outperformed existing object recognition and detection algorithms. On the other hand satellite imagery captures scenes that are diverse. This paper describes a deep learning approach that analyzes a geo referenced satellite image and efficiently detects built structures in it. A Fully Convolution Network (FCN) is trained on low resolution Google ea...

This article addresses the issue of analyzing and mapping mobility practices by using different kinds of mobile phone network data, which provide geo-located information on mobile phone activity at a high spatial and temporal resolution. It will present and discuss major findings and drawbacks, based on an application carried out on the Milan urban region (Lombardy, Northern Italy) and suggest ...

Terrain surfaces conserve human activities in terms of textures and structures. The objective of geomorphological filters is to distinguish between anthropogenically undisturbed and disturbed surfaces. Filters applied over high-resolution DTM show a clear anthropogenic character of contour lines and channels. Based on methodology of geomorphometry and geo-statistics a series of analyses functio...

A key factor in the implementation of productive and sustainable cultivation procedures is the frequent and area-wide monitoring of cropland and grassland. In particular, attention is focused on assessing the actual status, identifying basic trends and mitigating major threats with respect to land-use intensity and its changes in agricultural and semi-natural areas. Here, multi-seasonal analyse...

With the rise of China and the implementation of the “21st Century Maritime Silk Road” strategy, research on geo-economics between China and ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) countries has become increasingly important. Current studies mainly focus on influencing factors, while there is little consideration about how these influencing factors act on geo-economic relationships. Ther...

This paper presents a research and development project that will provide an extension to 2D geo-databases for handling large terrain data. It first discusses application requirements and system design, and then elaborates system architecture for optimal data organization and updating, efficient multi-resolution queries, and dynamic DTM generation. It then addresses technical issues related to d...

The mass spectromctnc study of the vaporization of the compounds GeO (hex) and GeO(am) and of the mixture GeO (hex) + Ge(c) made it *Z possible to establish their mode of vaporization: Ge02(hex) GeO(g) + 1/20 (I) n GeO(am) (GeO) (g) (n 1. 2. 3) (II) n n/2 GeOJhex) + n/2 Ge(c) (GeO) (g) (n = 1,2,3) (III) c. n The enthalpies of vaporization are AH° (I) 121. 2± 1.6 kcal/mole AH» (II, n=l) = 53.4 ±...
