ANADEM: A Digital Terrain Model for South America

Remote Sensing
Digital elevation models (DEMs) have a wide range of applications and play a crucial role in many studies. Numerous public DEMs, frequently acquired using radar and optical satellite imagery, are currently available; however, DEM datasets tend to exhibit elevation values influenced by vegetation height and coverage, compromising the accuracy of models ...

Consumer Adoption of Internet of Things

Journal of Consumer Behaviour, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 673-693, March 2025.
ABSTRACT The Internet of Things (IoT), a pivotal technology in enhancing user connectivity, faces a paradox: its widespread potential yet limited consumer adoption. This study addresses this dichotomy by synthesizing a large‐scale meta‐analytic structural equation modeling (MASEM) and hierarchical linear meta‐analysis (HiLMA) of 2736 effect sizes from ...
