Connecting and coordinating conservation action across landscapes through regional planning processes and syntheses

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
The Midwest Conservation Blueprint is a basemap of priority lands and waters for conservation, reflecting a diverse set of 20+ social and environmental values. Its purpose is to help coordinate voluntary conservation actions and investments across a broad scale.

Quantifying Colonisation Pressure as a Driver of Secondary Spread During the Dreissena polymorpha Invasion of German River Networks

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions have become a major component of global change, yet the processes governing secondary spread after initial introductions remain insufficiently resolved. A specific and central gap is the lack of a spatially explicit and temporally dynamic quantification of colonisation pressure, despite its presumed importance for ...

Seismic Risk of Critical Transport Systems: Sensitivity Analysis of the Campania Railway Network to Bradyseism's Features

open access: yesRisk Analysis, Volume 46, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines the impact of epistemic uncertainties on the seismic risk of a critical transport system, the Campania railway network, during the ongoing bradyseismic unrest at Campi Flegrei, south of Italy. Seismic risk is quantified as the length of the railway requiring post‐event inspection, an operational proxy for service disruption.

Structure‐Aware Unsupervised Transmission Corridor Structure Extraction From 3DEP Lidar Using Graph Attention Embeddings and Reinforcement‐Learned DBSCAN

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 5, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Transmission corridors are critical components of power delivery infrastructure, and their large‐area monitoring increasingly relies on national‐scale airborne lidar programs. This study presents an unsupervised, scalable framework for extracting transmission corridor structures (including conductors and supporting towers) from U.S. Geological

Determination of the Sample Size of Linear Features Used in Cartographic Quality Control Through Monte Carlo Simulation

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 5, August 2026.
ABSTRACT In sampling‐based process, sample size is always a debated topic. To assess positional accuracy using points, there are several studies and standards that determine what sample size should be used. However, for positional control using lines, there is no knowledge of a study that indicates the sample size.

A Deep Reinforcement Learning Methodology to Balance Geoprivacy and Local Search Utility in Location‐Based Services

open access: yesTransactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 5, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The research work addresses the need to preserve the user's privacy in urban contexts without relying on pure contemporary approaches—like k‐anonymity or stochastic noise. We present a privacy preserving methodology that adapts to varying spatial contexts of users.
