The COVID-19 pandemic is changing the world in unprecedented and unpredictable ways. Human mobility, being the greatest facilitator for the spread of the virus, is at the epicenter of this change. In order to study mobility under COVID-19, to evaluat...

Simulation games, as a method of playful learning, have been used for more than 70 years in various disciplines with the economy as a leading application field. Their development has been tied with advances in computer science, and nowadays, hundreds...

Spatial object matching is one of the fundamental technologies used for updating and merging spatial data. This study focused mainly on the matching optimization of multiscale spatial polygonal objects. We proposed a granularity factor evaluation ind...

Climate change has severe consequences on ecosystem processes, as well as on people’s quality of life. It has been suggested that the loss of vegetation cover increases the land surface temperature (LST) due to modifications in biogeochemical pattern...

With the gradual emergence of the separation and dislocation of urban jobs-housing space, rational planning of urban jobs-housing space has become the core issue of national land-spatial planning. To study the existing relationship between workspaces...

It is acknowledged that various types of thematic maps emphasize different aspects of mapped phenomena and thus support different map users’ tasks. To provide empirical evidence, a user study with 366 participants was carried out comparing three map...

Improving the urban livability status has become the core goal of urban development, and reasonable assessment of the urban livability status and impact is crucial. By combining an objective environment with residents’ subjective cognition, an artifi...

Emergency remote sensing mapping can provide support for decision making in disaster assessment or disaster relief, and therefore plays an important role in disaster response. Traditional emergency remote sensing mapping methods use decryption algori...

The importance of combining spatial and temporal aspects has been increasingly recognized over recent years, yet pertinent pattern analysis methods in place-based crime research still need further development to explicitly indicate spatial-temporal l...

Analyzing the urban spatial structure of a city is a core topic within urban geographical information science that has the ability to assist urban planning, site selection, location recommendation, etc. Among previous studies, comprehending the funct...
