Automated synthesis of biodiversity knowledge requires better tools and standardised research output
As the impact of anthropogenic activity on the environment has grown, research into biodiversity change and associated threats has also accelerated. Synthesising this vast literature is important for understanding the drivers of biodiversity change and identifying those actions that will mitigate further ecological losses. However, keeping pace with an

Adapting the Edinburgh Geoparser for Historical Georeferencing [PDF]
Place name mentions in text may have more than one potential referent (e.g. Peru, the country vs. Peru, the city in Indiana). The Edinburgh Language Technology Group (LTG) has developed the Edinburgh Geoparser, a system that can automatically recognise place name mentions in text and disambiguate them with respect to a gazetteer.

Social Media Meets Big Urban Data: A Case Study of Urban Waterlogging Analysis. [PDF]
With the design and development of smart cities, opportunities as well as challenges arise at the moment. For this purpose, lots of data need to be obtained. Nevertheless, circumstances vary in different cities due to the variant infrastructures and populations, which leads to the data sparsity.

How can voting mechanisms improve the robustness and generalizability of toponym disambiguation?
Natural language texts, such as tweets and news, contain a vast amount of geospatial information, which can be extracted by first recognizing toponyms in texts (toponym recognition) and then identifying their geospatial representations (toponym ...

GeoAnnotator: A Collaborative Semi-Automatic Platform for Constructing Geo-Annotated Text Corpora
Ground-truth datasets are essential for the training and evaluation of any automated algorithm. As such, gold-standard annotated corpora underlie most advances in natural language processing (NLP).

Text‐analysis reveals taxonomic and geographic disparities in animal pollination literature
Ecological systematic reviews and meta‐analyses have significantly increased our understanding of global biodiversity decline. However, for some ecological groups, incomplete and biased datasets have hindered our ability to construct robust, predictive models. One such group consists of the animal pollinators.
