ABSTRACT This research addresses a critical but underexamined challenge in disaster preparedness: the identification of neighborhoods where evacuation is hardest to accomplish based on physical infrastructure constraints as well as inherent social vulnerability. Existing evacuation approaches emphasize the flow of traffic and the capacity of roads, but

Focal‐Feature Regression Kriging
ABSTRACT Spatial interpolation is a crucial task in geography. As perhaps the most widely used interpolation methods, geostatistical models‐such as Ordinary Kriging (OK)‐assume spatial stationarity, which makes it difficult to capture the nonstationary characteristics of geographic variables.

A System for Generating Customized Pleasant Pedestrian Routes Based on OpenStreetMap Data
In this work, we present a system that generates customized pedestrian routes entirely based on data from OpenStreetMap (OSM). The system enables users to define to what extent they would like the route to have green areas (e.g., parks, squares, trees ...

ABSTRACT Traditional measures of urban accessibility often rely on static models or survey data. However, location information from mobile networks enables large‐scale, dynamic analyses of how people navigate cities. In this study, we employ eXtended Detail Records (XDRs) from mobile phone activity to analyze commuting patterns and accessibility ...

ABSTRACT Among the various theories of categorization, Eleanor Rosch's prototype theory stands out as both influential and contested. In contrast to the classical theory of concepts, prototype theory posits that humans conceptualize the world using category structures where exemplars vary in their degree of membership.

or Real An important characteristic of maps is the fact that they represent selections from reality in an abstract way. Especially for presentation purposes, maps that look ‘empty’ might even work better than maps with an overloaded view. In an exploratory mode, an overloaded map could be very representative for the topic being studied, and via ...
