Understanding the risks posed by potentially toxic metals (PTMs) in large regions is important for environmental management. However, regional risk assessment that relies on traditional field sampling or administrative statistical data is labor-inten...
The Mara River Basin of Africa has a world-famous ecosystem with vast vegetation, which is home to many wild animals. However, the basin is experiencing vegetation degradation and bad climate change, which has caused conflicts between people and wild...
The Land Administration System (LAS) records real estates, owners, and rights information. Changes that take place in the real world are recorded as transactions in LAS. This paper discusses various data-integrity constraints that have to be taken in...
Although winter wheat has been mapped by remote sensing in several studies, such mapping efforts did not sufficiently utilize contextual information to reduce the noise and still depended heavily on optical imagery and exhausting classification appro...
Forest canopy cover (FCC) is one of the most important forest inventory parameters and plays a critical role in evaluating forest functions. This study examines the potential of integrating Sentinel-1 (S-1) and Sentinel-2 (S-2) data to map FCC in the...
An assessment of site suitability for wind and solar plants is a strategic step toward ensuring a low-cost, high-performing, and sustainable project. However, these issues are often handled on a local scale using traditional decision-making approache...
The determination of a reasonable spatial analysis unit is an essential step in urban functional zone (UFZ) division, which significantly affects the results. However, most studies on the division of functional zones are based on excessively large sp...
Accurate urban morphology provided by Local Climate Zones (LCZ), a universal surface classification scheme, offers opportunities for studies of urban heat risk, urban ventilation, and transport planning. In recent years, researchers have attempted to...
Urban logistics is an important research topic in human and economic geography; unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are an emerging technology that has huge potential in the field of logistics with the release of control restrictions on low-altitude airs...
A co-location pattern is a set of spatial features whose instances are frequently correlated to each other in space. Its mining models always consist of two essential steps. One step is to generate neighbor relationships between spatial instances, an...
