Rethinking GIScience Education in an Age of Disruptions

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 29, Issue 2, April 2025.
ABSTRACT GIS and GIScience education have continually evolved over the past three decades, responding to technological advances and societal issues. Today, the content and context in which GIScience is taught continue to be impacted by these disruptions, notably from technology through artificial intelligence (AI) and society through the myriad ...

Enrichment of OpenStreetMap Data Completeness with Sidewalk Geometries Using Data Mining Techniques

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Tailored routing and navigation services utilized by wheelchair users require certain information about sidewalk geometries and their attributes to execute efficiently. Except some minor regions/cities, such detailed information is not present in current

Data-driven approach to learning salience models of indoor landmarks by using genetic programming

open access: yesInternational Journal of Digital Earth, 2020
In landmark-based way-finding, determining the most salient landmark from several candidates at decision points is challenging. To overcome this problem, current approaches usually rely on a linear model to measure the salience of landmarks.

An SDI for the GIS-education at the UGent Geography Department [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The UGent Geography Department (GD) (ca. 200 students; 10 professors) has been teaching GIS since the mid 90’s. Ever since, GIS has evolved from Geographic Information Systems, to GIScience, to GIServices; implying that a GIS specialist nowadays has to ...

Effects of Reduced Terrestrial LiDAR Point Density on High-Resolution Grain Crop Surface Models in Precision Agriculture

open access: yesSensors, 2014
3D geodata play an increasingly important role in precision agriculture, e.g., for modeling in-field variations of grain crop features such as height or biomass.

Network geography: relations, interactions, scaling and spatial processes in GIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This chapter argues that the representational basis of GIS largely avoidseven the most rudimentary distortions of Euclidean space as reflected, forexample, in the notion of the network. Processes acting on networks whichinvolve both short and longer term

Investigation of Travel and Activity Patterns Using Location-based Social Network Data: A Case Study of Active Mobile Social Media Users

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2015
Due to its relatively high availability and low cost, location-based social network (LBSN) (e.g., Foursquare) data (a popular type of volunteered geographic information) seem to be an alternative or complement to survey data in the study of travel ...

GIScience II: Disability GIS

open access: yesProgress in Human Geography
This second progress report critically reviews the intersection of GIS and disability, tracing its evolution from a few isolated studies toward modest growth in recent scholarship. Through a contemporary literature analysis (N = 240) structured around four themes—wayfinding, spatial accessibility, cartography, and spatial epidemiology—we identify ...
