Improving the accuracy of extant gridded population maps using multisource map fusion

open access: yesGIScience and Remote Sensing, 2022
Population distribution is the most direct indicator used to describe human activities. Grid-based population distribution maps overcome the drawbacks of statistical data and are thus more suitable for integrated analysis with environmental data. However,

Fusion of Multiple Gridded Biomass Datasets for Generating a Global Forest Aboveground Biomass Map

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Many advanced satellite estimation methods have been developed, but global forest aboveground biomass (AGB) products remain largely uncertain. In this study, we explored data fusion techniques to generate a global forest AGB map for the 2000s at 0.01 ...

Of maps and grids [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience of Consciousness, 2021
Abstract Neuroscience has made remarkable advances in accounting for how the brain performs its various functions. Consciousness, too, is usually approached in functional terms: the goal is to understand how the brain represents information, accesses that information, and acts on it.

Evaluating the Accuracy of Gridded Population Estimates in Slums: A Case Study in Nigeria and Kenya

open access: yesUrban Science, 2021
Low- and middle-income country cities face unprecedented urbanization and growth in slums. Gridded population data (e.g., ~100 × 100 m) derived from demographic and spatial data are a promising source of population estimates, but face limitations in ...

Improving intelligent dasymetric mapping population density estimates at 30 m resolution for the conterminous United States by excluding uninhabited areas [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data, 2022
Population change impacts almost every aspect of global change from land use, to greenhouse gas emissions, to biodiversity conservation, to the spread of disease.

Measuring modal accessibility gap using gridded population and network map platform data

open access: yesAin Shams Engineering Journal, 2023
Few studies have calculated the magnitude of the modal accessibility gap between public and private transportation (MAG) by taking into account both population characteristics and time-varying characteristics.

Confidence-rich grid mapping [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Robotics Research, 2019
Representing the environment is a fundamental task in enabling robots to act autonomously in unknown environments. In this work, we present confidence-rich mapping (CRM), a new algorithm for spatial grid-based mapping of the 3D environment. CRM augments the occupancy level at each voxel by its confidence value.

Datasets and approaches for the estimation of rainfall erosivity over Italy: A comprehensive comparison study and a new method

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2021
The paper considers a methodology to assess rainfall erosivity in Italy for the recent decades (1981–2010), building on datasets and materials freely available, such as those included within the Climate Data Store (CDS) of the Copernicus Climate Change ...

High-Precision Population Spatialization in Metropolises Based on Ensemble Learning: A Case Study of Beijing, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Accurate spatial population distribution information, especially for metropolises, is of significant value and is fundamental to many application areas such as public health, urban development planning and disaster assessment management. Random forest is
